As of 2019, almost the entirety of respondents stated using Youtube as an audio and video platform. As far as providers uniquely dedicated to music streaming, Deezer and Spotify came in second and third place respectively. Founded in 2007, Deezer is the leading French digital distribution platform that offers audio streaming services through a website and mobile apps both in France and worldwide.

Music download

Deezer also is the first platform French consumers turn to pay for music download services. Over the past decade, there has been a significant shift in the way people consume music as online music consumption has become more and more prevalent, whether in the form of music streaming or download. While the sales of physical music significantly dropped, digital music sales have been on the rise and have exceeded physical revenues.

Festivals

However, it would be wrong to assume that music is only consumed online nowadays. Music festivals’ popularity is rising among the French population and bring more and more people together than ever. Even though only a minority of concertgoers claim to legally download music after attending a show, lots of them claim that music shows allow them to experience something exciting and it with their friends and family.
