PRNewswire/ ----The pace of digital transformation, both globally and in India when it comes to audio and video consumption on smartphones, is tremendous. It is not surprising to note the gradual shift in consumer preference to consume content has drifted from TVs to personal desktops to laptops and now finally to smartphones.
