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

(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
RDATE:26082008

Dublin - Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6a7da1/doughrami_a_loo) has
announced the addition of the "Dough-Ra-Mi: A Look at Mobile Music,
Ringtones, Ringbacks, Games, Graphics & Adult Content" report to their
offering.

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.
