"In monetary terms, Germany's record industry, the world's third-biggest music territory behind the US and Japan, accrued €686m in H1 2015.

The income of the German recorded music market increased 4.4% year-on-year in the first half of 2015 – as huge gains in streaming easily offset declines in CD."

I don't even know what to do with that info.  Thanks for posting it, I guess?

Became a Shooting Star when I got my 1st guitar.
Back in '66, I was 13 and that was my fix.
Still shooting for stardom after all this time.
If I never make it, I'll still be fine.

That means you got to sell your CDs  in Germany. Any VW owners on the forum?   :whistling:

I hear that vinyl's back.

Good, because I have accumulated about 1500 LPs since 1967 or so.

I'm down from around 3,000 to about 800. Couldn't move them all.   :thumb

Yes, this year was the first year that "online" came up to par with physical sales in the U.S.

That article was the first I've read that any other market was behaving similarly.

How much of that revenue is[n't] getting to the artists? Ironically, there's a lot of spin . . .
