Digital music in the United Kingdom - statistics & facts
Whereas our music consumption has always been subdued to change over the decades, it’s the digital world that has shaped our listening habits the most over the last twenty years. This is also true for the third-biggest music market worldwide – the United Kingdom. While the overall music market in the United Kingdom has been growing steadily over the years, this is even more true for the digital music market. The United Kingdom is estimated to be the biggest digital music market in Europe with revenues surpassing one billion U.S. dollars. Music streaming makes up most of the music consumption in the digital segment and forecasts predict that the number of music streamers will continue to grow in the upcoming years.
