Recorded Music: Digital Falls Short
Weighed down by plummeting CD sales, the global recording industry struggles to regain its footing in a rapidly changing marketplace.
The Recorded Music report tracks digital formats such as online downloads, ringtones, mastertones, full tracks delivered to mobile handsets and Internet and mobile subscription services, as well as CD sales.
Worldwide spending on recorded music is forecast to decline from $31.8 billion in 2006 to $26.2 billion in 2011. Similarly, US spending on recorded music is expected to drop from $11.5 billion to $9.3 billion during the same period.
