News You Can Use 📰
U.S. Recorded Music Revenue Up 8%
Streaming revenue accounted for between 83% and 84% of the total business.
Digital downloads continued their decline, experiencing a 12.2% decrease and now making up only 3% of the overall industry.
Physical sales continued to rise, this time by 10.5% to $1.91 billion, primarily fueled by vinyl sales, which grew by 10.3% year over year, reaching 43.2 million.
Despite a decrease in the number of CDs sold, CD sales revenue also experienced double-digit growth, up by 11.3% to 37 million units in 2023 from 37.7 million the previous year. (This suggests an increase in the average price per unit.)
