Many factors are involved here I think.... numbers, availability of internet, language and culture. There are also very few Japanese for instance.

Compared to the countries you mentioned, India has a big middle class and a lot of those speak English and have access to the internet....

The IT sector in India is growing like mad, with internet growing congruently. The company I work for had 14 000 applicants for around 150 job openings!!

Hi,

I don't think audio as a hobby is the first thing on everyone's agenda in some of the third world countries at least. India is a different story, a rapidly growing economy gives rise to opportunity in new fields.

Thanks
Raja
