Over the past three and a half years, people have downloaded songs from NBC’s The Voice more than 20 million times. Marketers explain this phenomenon by Voice’s popularity, which keeps growing. The show pulls in close to 14 million viewers each week and it is currently the most watched reality-TV program.
