Over 1.2 million DAB+ radios sold in Germany in 2024
In 2024, over 1.2 million radio sets with DAB+ were sold over physical and virtual shop counters in Germany. This corresponds to 50 per cent of all radio receivers sold and a significant increase compared to 2020, when the share was 35 per cent. The electrical engineering association ZVEI cited these figures with reference to the retail panel of the market research institute GfK as part of World Radio Day on 13 February. According to the ZVEI, traditional radio listening remains popular in Germany despite the growth in streaming services. Nine out of ten users continue to enjoy radio reception. Around two thirds of listeners rely on streaming or web radio, according to a consumer survey conducted by GfK on behalf of the ZVEI.
