The company said in a statement  that this forecast is almost double the $885m in expected investment this year. This expectation comes at the time when Spotify took recent podcast acquisitions.

This compares to a 53.0 per cent share for YouTube, and a 28.8 per cent share of Apple.
According to WARC, one in three people now listen to a podcast each month and four in five podcast listeners do not mind ads as a means of supporting podcast content.  The US is by far the world’s largest market for podcast advertising, accounting for an estimated 61.8 per cent of the format’s global spend last year ($402m). The IAB expects this to grow 28.0 per cent to $514.5m this year.
