Youth sound consumption practices, between big platforms and the radio ecosystem: The case of Colombia-Spain

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis and correlation of youthful sound consumption practices from the comparative specificities of Colombian and Spanish university ecosystems. Through a quantitative-qualitative methodology applied to a sample of 160 subjects, a generational cut pattern is confirmed both in the use of devices and in the type of content demanded. Likewise, the emergence of a hybrid consumer in whose digital sonosphere contents from global platforms, radio and podcasts coexist, and who is interested in the offer of the own radio ecosystem is outlined.
