Abstract
Even though online radio services have been available since the mid-1990s, academic research on online radio diffusion remains scarce.

Results show that online radio's fluid technology attributes, positive adoption beliefs and attitudes, and functionally similar technology clusters are significant predictors of online radio adoption. A lack of familiarity with online radio and low affinity with radio listening might have contributed to the lack of interest in online radio adoption.
