Can we rewrite "preferences along" into "preferences in"?
'Further, Nielsen indicates that iTunes users form a distinct target audience with brand preferences along autos, alcohol beverages, magazines, and television,' he added.

"Along" doesn't make sense to me here. Is there any chance that the word could have been "among" instead? I think "in" would work. |
