Worldwide Demand Remains Strong for MP3 and Portable Media Players
In-Stat/MDR, Aug 2007, Pages: 36
Worldwide unit shipments for both flash-based and HDD-based portable media player (PMP)/MP3 players reached 182 million in 2006, up 42% from 2005. Fueled by market drivers, such as inexpensive flash-based players available around the world, growing broadband penetration, and the increasing availability of affordable, legitimate music and video online, the PMP/MP3 player market is expected to grow to 275 million units by 2011.
Consumers are clearly still demanding these portable devices. Of the 2,408 respondents to our latest survey, 52% own an audio-only MP3 player or PMP. While many of these portable players now play video, as well as audio, the largest majority of respondents who own a video-enabled device purchased the portable player primarily for its audio functionality. However, since the costs for incorporating video into portable devices continues to decline, Our expects video-enabled PMP shipments to outpace audio-only MP3 player shipments by 2008.
Our latest report examines the worldwide PMP/MP3 player market and offers forecasts for worldwide revenue and regional shipments for these players. It also provides results for a US-based survey regarding consumers' attitudes toward both audio-only MP3 players and video-enabled PMPs.
