“100 million registered users is an amazing milestone, and we are thrilled to see such great momentum and traction for iHeartRadio,” said Darren Davis, President of iHeartRadio. “We are committed to continuing to provide an exceptional listening experience for our millions of fans and listeners, and with the official launch of our new on demand services, we are able to offer even more iHeartRadio features for our listeners who want to enhance their radio experience.”

In addition to its new on-demand features, iHeartRadio continues to expand podcast offerings. Last year, iHeartRadio saw a 30% percent increase in listenership to its more than 5,000 podcasts.
