Trends in the sales of music between 2011 and 2018

Trends in the sales of music between 2011 and 2018 gxdwD

This line graph illustrates the percentage of how people purchase music from 2011 to 2018. In this chart, there are three ways to purchase music: streaming, downloading, and purchasing physical copies. Overall, the percentage of purchasing physical copies has been declining since 2011. The percentage of downloading rose between 2011 and 2014, and then began to decline. Compared to the other two methods, the percentage of streaming was rapidly increasing. In 2011, the primary way people purchased music was by purchasing physical copies, which accounted for more than half of the market. At the same time, downloading music accounted for 35% of the market, while online streaming was only 5%. Since 2014, the number of people downloading music was higher than purchasing physical copies. Streaming continued to rise, with an equal percentage of purchasing physical copies in 2016 and the same percentage of downloads in 2017. Streaming accounted for more than 40% of the market in 2018. Streaming had an eightfold increase, from 5% to a bit over 40%. On the other two methods, the decline of the data was smooth.
