Indonesians are increasingly adopting digital media over traditional media like newspapers, magazines, radio and television. This is due to people having increasingly busy lifestyles with less spare time. Digital media allows them to access content anytime, anywhere on multiple integrated platforms. Newspapers, magazines and radio are evolving to have digital and social media presences to engage audiences who now prefer interacting and sharing content online. Television is also expanding its content across different digital platforms like streaming. Digital media brings significance by giving people more time through easy access to information, making life more convenient, and allowing self-actualization through online expression and popularity.
