Due to Amazon's purchase of Audible, Amazon will begin to properly promote Audible's internet delivered adio book content. This will help drive Audible's Q3 YOY revenue by 3 fold.

The success of this prediction is dependent on Amazon taking a very active merchandising role in promoting Audible's downloadable content.

Should this be predicted by The Standard?

Comments

A couple of comments:

Will AMZN split out Audible's revenue? It's now a fully-owned subsidiary, so this might be unobtainable information.

I would edit the final sentence. "The success of this prediction is dependent..." rather than "This prediction is dependent..."

Assuming that revenue numbers will be available after Q3 I think this is an interesting prediction.


What would be a good source to verify your prediction, Marc?
