Streaming growth speeds up. Online radio’s growth rate accelerated in February for a second consecutive month, once again propelling the medium to a new historic high. Average Active Sessions surged to 4.1 million, a 40.2% increase over the same period last year in the Monday-Friday, 6am-8pm daypart, according to new data from Triton Digital. Sessions shot up 43.6% to 3.48 million in the full week daypart. Both gains are consistent with growth rates reported in January, yet appreciably higher than last fall’s gains, when the average year-over-year increase was 28% for weekday listening and 31% for total week. Although the overall streaming trend continues to surge forward, the rising tide is lifting some boats more than others and some webcasters have lost ground during the past 12 months. On a year-over-year basis, the top gainers among broadcast webcasters were ESPN Radio (28%) — likely helped by the Super Bowl — iHeartMedia (9%) and Greater Media and Salem (each up 8%). Pureplays with the biggest annual gains are AccuRadio (38%), Pandora (13%), Idobi (12%) and Slacker (3%). February marked the second month that Triton included on-demand streaming service Spotify, which ranked No. 2 behind Pandora with 797,498 sessions, up 5% from its January debut in the Monday-Sunday, 6am-8pm daypart.
Warming trend for CHR. February wasn’t just a banner month for over-the-air listening to CHR. The format also hit a homerun online, posting the largest streaming gain of any format. Compared to January, CHR listening grew 11.5% during the Monday-Friday, 6am-8pm daypart, according to Triton Digital. That’s in line with broadcast radio data reported earlier by Nielsen showing CHR added nearly a full share-point from the Holiday survey through February. Back to Triton’s online data, modern rock had February’s second largest listening spike (9.1%), followed by AC (3.5%), urban (3.1%) and news/talk (2.1%) The march to mobile continued unabated in February with 72.7% of weekday internet radio listening taking place on a mobile device, setting another new record. The percent listening on desktops has slipped to 17.3%. Minneapolis-St. Paul is the city with February’ largest gain, up 13.9% compared to January, followed by Phoenix (13.6%), San Diego (11.4%), Portland (11.0%), Denver (9.6%) and Los Angeles (8.7%).

Radio begins tapping the programmatic ad well. It is estimated $20 billion worth of advertising buys will be placed through programmatic buying platforms within two years, and Jelli CEO Mike Dougherty says the just-announced iHeartMedia and Katz Media Group programmatic initiatives will help lead the industry’s charge to grab its share. “Hundreds of millions of dollars will shift to programmatic in the next 24 months, if not sooner,” he predicts. How large radio’s cut will be, according to Dougherty, will be helped by the introduction of 245 million listeners that iHeartMedia’s 850 stations bring to the table. It’s a U.S. audience figure he notes is larger than Google or Facebook. “It’s a huge amount of reach and of course advertisers and marketers who use programmatic techniques care about reach,” he says. “That is one of the reasons why this is a watershed moment for radio — we now have a seat at the table with programmatic advertising.” IHeartMedia CEO Bob Pittman says the effort will help radio level the playing field with other media, especially digital where programmatic is nearly standard.

THURSDAY, APRIL 9, 2015NEWS
“This new tool will give our sales groups the ability to more deeply partner with an advertiser — allowing us to provide much better service and performance to every client,” he says. IHeartMedia will launch its private exchange in the coming months with the amount of inventory sold through the platform to depend on the demand from marketers. Dougherty predicts it will be “significant,” especially for national clients, although he thinks there are still “huge amounts” of ads that won’t initially be programmatically bought and sold. He puts integration with live events, sponsorships and live reads on that list, but adds, “Over time I think more inventory will migrate to this type of platform.”
Next year from Katz: a broader industry effort. Up first, iHeartMedia stations, but next year, Katz Media Group will carry the programmatic banner across the industry with a radio-wide effort branded Expressway from Katz for all 275 of its clients. “We felt it was critical that radio take the lead,” Katz Media Group president Mark Rosenthal says, saying the combination of fusing data, speed and automation will allow radio to bring “unprecedented scale and customer knowledge” to advertisers. “What Katz is doing is to some degree even bigger for the medium — it will fundamentally transform how marketers think about buying spots,” Jelli CEO Mike Dougherty says. “The combination of the two really puts radio on the radar for all marketers.” Executives from Horizon Media, ZenithOptimedia and Universal McCann have already committed to buying inventory programmatically for their clients, saying it will allow for a more intelligent and data-driven use of radio. “This move allows us to finally combine the tremendous power of radio advertising in a cost-effective and responsive way with unique and real time targeting capabilities,” Horizon CEO Bill Koenigsberg says. Jelli had already been working with clients such as Entercom and Townsquare. With iHeartMedia, its programmatic lineup mushrooms to about 1,250 stations. “That shows you the industry is starting to adopt this, and we can now match that up with demand from the advertiser side,” Dougherty says.
Like radio, TV preps for programmatic. Programmatic is moving from on-deck to the batter’s box at both radio and TV. Using data and automation to buy and sell, programmatic has become the primary way digital display advertising is transacted. Beyond just automating the buy-sell process, programmatic relies heavily on data that describes the audience in terms beyond age and gender. More precise audience segments are used to target consumers, like people in the market to buy a car or purchase insurance. “The data that is available to identify those audiences and reach them with the advertising is plentiful,” Nielsen SVP of global digital audience measurement Eric Solomon says. As with radio, most TV advertising continues to be bought and sold manually, through long-form negotiations. “But there are new innovations in TV that are allowing for some amount of targeted advertising on TV, typically in long-tail TV programming and in video on demand,” Solomon says. “Once those capabilities are out there, it’s not a big leap to put those onto a programmatic platform where the ad is delivered at the point of impression.” As more advertising is sold programmatically, Nielsen expects to see an increased need among marketers to measure the effectiveness of the advertising. “There is a presumption by the person purchasing the advertising that you will actually reach that target audience because of the data that’s available to do so,” Solomon says. “More and more the notion of measuring resonance and reaction are becoming predominant.”
Gen Media partners with M&A on cross-platform marketing. Gen Media Partners has partnered with niche marketing company Maisano and Associates (M&A) to add a cross-platform marketing unit to the newly launched rep firm. Branded as Gen Media Complete, the division will work to tap client promotion and marketing budgets for the radio stations it represents. The companies say their partnership will offer a wide swath of programs, including brand trial, in-venue engagement, experiential marketing, broadcast tune-ins, product activation and cause marketing across broadcast, digital, mobile and social media. Gen Media Partners VP of operations and strategy Dave Demer and M&A president Beth Maisano will manage the unit. M&A has worked with such clients as Kraft Foods, Pepsico, Unilever and Jack Daniels. “We start with an assessment of the advertiser’s specific needs and build a strategic plan that creates opportunities for interaction across multiple platforms and with multiple consumer touch points,” Maisano says. “It’s truly a complete ROI-focused solution for brands.” Gen Media Partners was formed less than two weeks ago by McGavren Guild and Local Focus combining their sales operations into a new ad selling umbrella group led by McGavren Guild-Local Focus CEO Kevin Garrity.

FCC’s O’Rielly sees courts as a new way for radio to fight pirates. “If broadcasting were a garden, pirate radio would be poisonous crabgrass.” That colorful analog from FCC commissioner Michael O’Rielly would draw little dispute from the radio industry, which may wonder why the proverbial FCC weed killer isn’t use to eradicate them. O’Rielly confirms what many suspect, the FCC’s resources are stretched too thin and stopping pirate radio is not at the top of the priority list. “We need to consider other ways to remove the scourge that is pirate radio,” he says. In a blog post O’Rielly suggests station owners be allowed to use other legal procedures to go after unlicensed stations. Putting broadcasters’ “legal bloodhounds” on their trail, he argues, isn’t different than what other FCC monitored industries have been allowed to do. If it’s an idea that the radio industry does decide to embrace, it will take outreach on Capitol Hill — not the FCC. O’Reilly points to a 2003 federal law by which Congress allowed internet service providers to sue email spammers as one potential template. “The framework serves as a good model to provide additional options — outside of the FCC process — for eliminating and deterring pirate radio,” he says. Rather than supplant FCC authority, O’Rielly thinks it would give broadcasters a new legal path to take against a service that’s “stealing listeners.” Some broadcasters have sounded the alarm, warning a tentative plan to shut down two-thirds of the FCC’s field offices will open the door to more pirates. O’Rielly says his proposal isn’t connected to that debate, in part because pirate radio has been a recurring trouble spot even with the current number of field offices and enforcement structure.
DOJ eyes changing ASCAP and BMI rate-setting process. The consent decrees under which the radio industry’s ASCAP and BMI rates are set appear likely for change. The scope of the alterations isn’t entirely clear, but multiple sources say the Department of Justice seems to be on a path to change legal framework that’s been in place since the 1940s. Songwriters say what was created seven decades ago hasn’t kept pace with today’s digital world and DOJ attorneys appear sympathetic to that argument. “They have been influenced by this argument that digital has changed everything,” a source says. What’s in play for the radio industry is the use of a federal court process to set ASCAP and BMI rates. The DOJ has signaled it thinks that process is too expensive, too slow and perhaps even unfair to the performance rights organizations. It’s considering whether an arbitration process away from the courtroom would be a better solution. No decision has been made on who the arbitrator would be, however, although some in the music industry are angling for the Copyright Royalty Board which they view as a friendlier venue. In public and private, the radio industry has urged the DOJ to leave how over-the-air rates are set just as it is. “Playing with those systems or fundamentally changing them, we ought to be looking at very cautiously,” Bonneville VP Mike Dowdle reiterated when he appeared before a congressional committee last month. But odds-makers who just weeks ago thought it was possible the DOJ wouldn’t open a copyright can of worms are less committed to that position today.
Decision may be months away. As the Department of Justice considers changing consent decrees that govern the ASCAP and BMI rate-setting process, sources say broadcasters, comparatively, may be hurt less by potential changes than streaming services. Webcasters could see a sizable jump in their songwriter royalties, since publishers could force them into direct negotiations. Pandora has also been pushing to keep the consent decrees largely as they are written today. But Pandora VP Chris Harrison told lawmakers last month that the company would be “open to sensible modifications” if pressed. The DOJ began its review last June and is expected to release its findings mid-year. In the meantime, attorneys say government lawyers are holding a series of meetings with all of the players to sketch out the direction the consent decrees may be heading. Whatever the DOJ proposes will need a federal court’s approval, a potentially lengthy timeline which could mean that the radio industry’s next deal with ASCAP and BMI — set to begin negotiations in 2016 — could be crafted under the current arrangement. American Express goes on the road with Radio One. American Express marketing executives have said they see radio as a particularly useful tool in their efforts to reach African-American consumers. That’s lead to a co-branded prepaid

credit card product with Radio One, called the One VIP Card from American Express. Building on that product, Amex and Radio One have created a live event building around financial freedom and empowerment for African-American women. Radio One hopes to attract 50,000 to six expos it plans for the coming months. Starting in Raleigh, NC on April 18, the Women’s Empowerment Expos will roll into Indianapolis, Detroit, Cincinnati, Richmond, and Cleveland in the coming months. Speaking at an Advertising Research Foundation event last year, VP Mary Ellen Jelenek said Amex has been using radio to market financial products to demos the company doesn’t typically go after including segments who are often “under-banked” — as in more likely to use things like money orders or check cashing stores. It’s a sizable demo, comprised of 50 million people, with a disproportionate number of young adults, African Americans and Hispanics. They are also three population segments who are also more likely to listen to radio. “So that’s been a really important part of our mix,” Jelenek said. American Express conducted its own ROI test for radio and the results showed a 23% lift in online registrations when radio commercials began airing. There was also a 38% jump in web searches. And in markets where Amex did heavy-up advertising, sales of its prepaid credit cards climbed 20%.
VerStandig sells out to Saga, which adds third Virginia market. Saga Communications has kicked the tires on several stations and clusters in recent years but it’s largely opted to remain on the sidelines. That may be changing as the company has announced it is giving its Norfolk and Charlottesville, VA clusters a nearby relative, and hints more deals may be in cue. For now, Saga is buying five Harrisonburg, VA radio market stations from VerStandig Broadcasting. The cluster includes CHR “Q-101” WQPO, soft AC “Fresh 96.1” WJDV, rock “105.1 Bob Rocks” WTGD, “News Radio 550” WSVA, and “ESPN Sports 1360” WHBG. “These stations fit very well into our model of owning heritage radio stations that are very tightly focused on serving their local communities,” Saga CEO Ed Christian says. The purchase price wasn’t immediately announced. Saga expects the sale to close in June. It’s the first acquisition for the company since it added an FM and three translators in Ithaca, NY last January for $715,000. With a balance sheet fattened by $17.9 million in the bank as of the end of 2014, some shareholders have pushed for dividends. But that cash may be earmarked for additional deals. “Saga intends to continue building its business in both the radio and television markets by identifying and acquiring middle market stations,” Christian says in a statement.

Leighton adds 10 Minnesota stations for $9.5 million. Minnesota Hall of Fame broadcasters Pat and Jerry Papenfuss have a struck a $9.5 million deal to sell 10 stations in Fergus Falls, Perham and Winona, Minnesota to Leighton Enterprises. The purchase builds on Bob Leighton’s Upper Midwest operation that already owns stations in St. Cloud and Detroit Lakes, MN as well as Grand Forks, ND. “The Fergus Falls and Perham markets being adjacent to our Detroit Lakes operations make them natural fits,” Leighton says. “Winona is a great market in southeast Minnesota and western Wisconsin that opens up a new region for us.” The stations in the Fergus Falls-Perham area include country “KJ Country 96.5” KJJK-FM, sports “AM 1020 The Game” KJJK, AC “The Lakes 99.5” KPRW, classic rock “Z-103.3” KZCR, and news/talk KBRF (1250). The stations in the Winona area are “Country 99.3” KWNO-FM, soft AC “Soft Rock 101.1” KHME, hot AC “KG-95.3” KAGE-FM, “KG-Country 1380” KAGE, and news/talk KWNO (1230). In a joint statement, Pat and Jerry Papenfuss say they’re happy to hand off the stations to a similarly-minded broadcaster. “Leighton Enterprises shares our commitment to the community, our listeners, our advertisers and our staff,” they say. They’ll still own four other Minnesota stations.
Inside Radio News Ticker...NAB building could cost $36 million: report…The National Association of Broadcasters’ new Washington headquarters could cost more than $36 million to build. That’s according to some rough estimates provided by commercial real estate experts to Communications Daily. NAB announced it is buying property in the Capital Waterfront neighborhood and because the price of the land is expected to also include the actual new building, a final price tag isn’t set. A rep says until NAB goes through the zoning process, which will take several months, along with the construction, NAB isn’t releasing any specific cost estimates…Tribune owners downsize stakes…The largest shareholders in Tribune Media are reducing their stake in the company by 25% with a 9,240,073-share secondary stock offering. Tribune, the owner of news/talk “Radio720” WGN, Chicago, is owned by Oaktree Capital, Angelo Gordon & Co., and JP Morgan Chase. They’ve announced an additional 1,386,010 shares of the company may also be sold. The proceeds will go to the stockholders, not Tribune. The company’s stock fell 3% on the news in Wednesday trading.
