The mobile media consumption has grown to a proportion where now it
has surpassed the amount of time spent by consumers watching TV.
InMobi’s first Mobile Media Consumption report states that consumers spend 27% of their media time on mobile, compared to 22% on TV.
One of the key findings of the report is the growth of M-Commerce (E-commerce on Mobile).
Mobile devices are increasingly becoming the medium for consumers to
make purchases or carry out financial transactions. The report finds
that Three quarters (76%) of mobile consumers plan to conduct mCommerce
activities within the next year.
Even Mobile advertising is now becoming mainstream with 42% users
claiming that they have found some new through this medium and over 66%
of mobile users are just as comfortable with mobile advertising as they
are with TV or online advertising.

I have question to readers – Do you really think mobile advertising
is becoming so mainstream? I find them far more intrusive than online
or TV advertising (due to small screen sizes of mobile). What do you
think?
