This study investigated factors affecting the use intention of podcast service users based on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT). Performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating condition, hedonic motivation, innovativeness, and media credibility were used as independent variables in the model. The survey data from the users of the podcast portal 'podbbang' were analyzed with Smart PLS 2.0 to test the structural equation model. The results revealed that the podcast service user's effort expectancy, facilitating condition, hedonic motivation, and media credibility have a significant influence on use intention. However, the relationship between the podcast service user's performance expectancy, social influence, innovativeness, and use intention were not identified as significant.

As the audio content market grows due to the spread of the AI speaker market and the influence of connected cars, the demand for podcast service is increasing. Therefore, in this study, the behaviors of podcast users were identified and the user types were classified. In the background study, podcast usage motives and user types were studied, and they were referred to when making the questionnaire. In the survey, preferred audio content was identified according to the situation, and in the in-depth interview, the user type and insights were derived by identifying the audio service usage behavior. As a result of the survey, there was little difference between preferred content for single listening and multitasking, but the difference in preferred content according to time period was statistically significant. The three user types derived from the in-depth interview were divided into users who listen alone for the purpose of study, find and listen to useful information quickly while on the go, and multitask and listen to the light and comfortable contents. It is expected that the results of this study will be an important reference for designing an audio content platform to improve user experience.

The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze the actual case of service about how podcasts are provided in domestic and foreign public libraries and to suggest the possibility of expanding the service field using podcasts in domestic public libraries. As a result, foreign public libraries provided library events and use guides, book reviews, library promotions, information and contents, and often provided podcasts by age and library news. But the utilization rate of podcasts in domestic public libraries was low. A Podcasts of domestic public libraries were introducing to new books and recommending books. In the Incheon Yulmok Library, conducted a podcast program that librarians directly read the passages in the book and recommend new books. As a result, the book borrowing and utilization rate of the books have increased. In this way, domestic public libraries should apply podcasts to provide useful information to users and expand service area through various contents development that can increase motivation and interest.

The idea to conduct this study stemmed from the following question: What is the appropriate interpretation of the recent change in the user behavior of radio listeners? For some terrestrial radio programs, traditional listeners who mainly listen to them real-time through terrestrial radio broadcasting has been outnumbered by those who access them on smartphones and other mobile devices in a nonlinear way outside the pre-scheduled time slots of the programs. In the research, how terrestrial radio listeners use the new service called podcasting to access and consume audio content were examined by using Q methodology. As a result, three different types of user behavior and perception were modeled. This shows a prominent change in radio content use, which is moving away from the conventional user behavior pattern of radio content, one of the key media for mass communication in the 20th century. Such a development opens up new opportunities to create the same or even a greater user base compared to the existing one for terrestrial radio programs with the users' newly gained mobile access and to replace current radio content by using podcasting as a new service.
