Dough-Ra-Mi: A Look at Mobile Music, Ringtones, Ringbacks, Games, Graphics & Adult Content

MultiMedia Intelligence, August 2008, Pages: 22

The global retail market for mobile premium content (not including mobile video and mobile TV) is projected to reach $29 billion by 2012. Led by retail mobile music, which was a $4.9 billion market for mobile operators in 2007, mobile premium content services added to the mobile handset user experience. Mobile premium content includes multiple segments of mobile music, as well as gaming, graphics and adult content.

There is a relationship between the success of premium mobile content and the maturity of cellular services in a given region. In emerging markets like China or Brazil, mobile operators are likely to focus on providing reliable, inexpensive packages in voice applications. Still, on balance, mobile games and adult content will continue to grow as revenue streams through 2012, while revenues from mobile graphics are expected to slightly recede.
