ListenerPOWER™ Online Music Research

What's it like to take an Online Music Survey?

All participants are interviewed over the phone. If you qualify, we will mail a CD-ROM to you. Simply insert the CD-ROM into your computer. The survey screen will automatically appear. After you log-in, the survey will begin. Make sure your computer is connected to the internet and that your speakers are working, or the log-in process will not work.

During the music portion of the survey, you will hear many short clips of songs. Tell us how you feel about each song by moving a slider on your screen using your mouse or touchpad. Here's a movie of an actual music survey:

After your survey is complete, we will verify your data and process your payment. You can discard the CD. Since no software is loaded at anytime, you will not need to uninstall anything.

We will present the opinions we collect from people like you to radio stations in your area. They use this information to improve their music mixes to better match the tastes of their local listeners. While the money you earn taking this survey may not last more than a few hours, the lasting benefit to you is better music on the radio in your area.
