Introduction
Six Key Themes For The
Music Industry In 2010
by John Kennedy, Chairman and CEO, IFPI
IFPI’s Recording Industry in Numbers
provides a comprehensive picture
of the key trends in today’s music
business. It continues to prove an
invaluable source of authoritative
data and analysis for music
companies, analysts, investors,
academics and many others. Certain
themes stand out in this edition:
Investment. The core mission of record companies is investing in
music. Figures released in IFPI’s Investing in Music report in March
2010 show the vital contribution labels make to the success of
artists’ careers. Record companies globally invest approximately
16% of their revenues in developing and nurturing artists – a
proportion greater than the R&D investment by industries such
as pharmaceuticals. Breaking an act in a major market takes
around US$1 million in investment.
The music industry spends an estimated US$5 billion per year on
developing and marketing artists. Much of that funds marketing
and promotion for artists to cut through the sheer volume of music
available online. This is vital in a world where more than 2.5 million
hip-hop and 1.8 million rock acts are registered on MySpace alone.
Consumers. Our industry is transforming its business models
to reflect the changing needs of music fans. Digital sales in 2009
totalled US$4.3 billion, meaning that more than a quarter of record
companies’ revenues now come through digital channels. Labels
have licensed more than 12 million tracks to over 400 services
worldwide, from download stores to advertising-supported
offerings. No other creative sector, except games, comes close to
the recorded music industry’s penetration and monetisation of the
digital world.
Piracy. Industry figures released in early 2010 revealed how piracy
is causing the collapse of some local music industries. In France,
local new artist signings fell by 59% on their level in 2002. In Spain,
local artist album sales in the top 50 fell by 65% between 20042009. Brazil shows similar data. These are countries with proud
music traditions where investment in new local music is suffering
due to piracy.
How does digital piracy translate into falling sales of music?
The explanation is simple. It is unfair competition – the availability
of free unauthorised music undermines the incentive to buy
legal product. An overwhelming majority of research bears out
the negative net impact of piracy on music purchasing. One key
finding, by Harris Interactive in 2009 in the UK, is that nearly one
in four people who download music illegally never buy music.
Jobs. Digital piracy poses a threat to jobs across the creative
sector. This was highlighted in a European study released in
March 2010 by Tera Consultants and endorsed by trade unions.
It found creative industries account for 6.9% of European GDP,
worth 1860 billion and 14 million jobs, or 6.5% of all employment
in Europe.
The report also revealed losses to the creative industries in Europe
from piracy were 110 billion in 2008, a figure that could rise to a
cumulative 1240 billion by 2015 if no action is taken to tackle the
problem. In 2008, piracy led to 185,000 job losses in Europe; by
2015 this figure could soar to 1.2 million.
Legislation. The music industry needs a fair regulated
environment in which to do business. In 2010, many governments
are working on solutions to this. France, New Zealand, South
Korea, Taiwan and the UK have adopted or are proposing new
measures requiring ISPs to tackle mass copyright theft on their
networks. They are centred on the “graduated response” by which
ISPs send warnings to users illegally file-sharing copyrighted
content. A crucial element of this is the use, as a last resort, of
a sanction such as bandwidth throttling or temporary account
suspension.
Education too is critical. Yet consumer feedback consistently
proves that knowledge of the law itself is not a deterrent to illegal
behaviour.
ISP partnership. ISPs stand to gain commercially as partners
in the digital music business. Sky in the UK, Telia in Sweden and
TDC in Denmark are among the pioneers offering legal music
services to their subscribers. In March 2010, Ovum estimated that
digital music services could generate more than £100 million in
potential direct revenue for British ISPs by 2013.
These are the themes of the global music industry in 2010 –
investment in music; responding to the consumer; the damage
caused by piracy; the threat to jobs; the need for legislation; and
the key partnership with ISPs. They guide our industry’s priorities
in the year ahead.
The global music market fell 7.2% in 2009. This may not seem
an encouraging statistic, but there was growth in 13 countries:
Australia, Brazil, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines,
South Korea, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, the UK and Uruguay. A
diverse and impressive list!

Recorded Music Sales In 2009
Recorded Music
Sales In 2009
Global recorded music trade revenues totalled US$17.0 billion in
2009, a decline of 7.2% on 2008. While physical sales continued
to fall (-12.7%), the rate of decline was smaller than in 2008, when
physical sales fell by 15.0%.
The shift from physical to digital consumption continued with
music companies’ global digital revenues growing by 9.2% in
2009 to US$4.3 billion. This is more than ten times the digital
market value in 2004. Digital channels now account for 25.3% of
all music sales. Performance rights revenues also grew strongly.
On a retail basis, the global recorded music market was worth an
estimated US$25.4 billion.

Despite the overall market decline, these results show a mixed
picture. The fall in sales in the two largest music markets, the US
and Japan, was responsible for nearly 80% of the global decline in
value. Excluding these two markets, recorded music sales would
have declined by a more modest 3.2% in 2009.
Overall sales of recorded music grew in 13 markets. Six markets
experienced the ‘Holy Grail’, where the growth in digital sales
offset the decline in physical sales, namely the UK, India, South
Korea, Thailand, Mexico and Australia.
Performance rights see another year of growth
Global performance rights revenues have shown considerable
resilience in the face of tough economic conditions, growing by
7.6% in 2009 to US$0.8 billion. This reflects an unbroken trend
of growth since 2003. Revenues from the sector now represent
4.6% of the total recorded music industry.
Territories reporting the highest performance rights revenues for
2009 were the UK, Japan, France, Germany and the US. Healthy
increases were reported across several territories including the
US and India.
Growth was particularly strong in Latin America & Caribbean,
where revenues increased by 23.2%. Mexico’s 2009 revenues
were more than double those of 2008. North America followed, with
US revenues up 28.0% in 2009 thanks to robust revenue growth in
all areas and successful efforts to reduce operating costs.

There is still potential for growth in performance rights revenues,
and initiatives are in place, such as improving and sharing
best practice across all music licensing companies, continued
development of tariffs and market penetration, and establishing
music licensing companies in new territories. This is a longterm industry strategy, but it is anticipated that in the context of
challenging trading conditions, the pace of global growth in the
sector will slow in the shorter term.

Digital Market
Developments In 2009
During 2009, music companies concentrated on rolling out
DRM-free downloads in the à-la-carte environment, developing
subscription models – particularly those involving ISP and mobile
partnerships – and experimenting with ad-supported services.
“Over the last five years we have seen a tenfold
increase in the number of digital retail partners
and a fivefold increase in the methods by
which consumers can consume music.”
Rob Wells, Senior Vice President, Digital, Universal Music Group
International
À-la-carte services
The traditional à-la-carte model continued to grow in 2009, led
by services such as iTunes and AmazonMP3. The roll-out of
DRM-free downloads, which began in 2008, greatly improved the
value proposition for consumers as they can now transfer their
purchased music files to different portable players when they buy
from virtually any online service in the world.
In March 2010, analysts Ovum published a study (“Is There a
Commercial Argument For ISP Music Services?”) and found that
digital music services could generate more than £100 million for
UK top-tier ISPs by 2013 in a medium user adoption scenario.
Providing music and other entertainment content can also help
ISPs reduce customer churn. UK broadband access services
are reaching saturation point and the market is maturing. At the
same time, competition and service bundling are driving down
broadband retail prices and consumer demand for rich content,
such as video, is increasing wholesale network costs. Against this challenging backdrop, as well as legislative changes,
the growth of connected rich-media devices and new licensing
frameworks, there is a strong case for ISPs to leverage their brand
and billing relationships to deliver digital music services. Ovum
concluded that ISPs are a critical channel for the provision of
future digital music services.
Mobile operators are also adapting their strategies, from a pure
focus on attracting new customers to offering more added-value
through appealing services. While mobile penetration is still growing
rapidly in developing countries, the European market is saturating.
Digital album sales played a part in the success of à-la-carte
downloads, growing faster than single track sales in many markets
in 2009. New products are enhancing the appeal of premium
albums which now account for, on average, 65-70% of sales of a
major digital album release. The introduction of variable pricing by
stores like iTunes is also helping increase the conversion of track
purchases into album sales, with a positive impact on revenues.
Bundled subscription services rolled out in partnership with
device manufacturers such as Nokia also gathered pace in 2009.
Other types of partnerships are also enhancing the link between
software and hardware. In the US, computer manufacturer
Dell has bundled the subscription service Rhapsody with its
computers, offering free access to the service for a limited period.
“Our average customer buys about one album
for every four or five tracks. We have artists like
The Horrors, where for every person that buys
a track, someone buys a whole album. On
the other hand, with more established artists
like The Pixies the ratio is more like eight tracks
to one album.”
“Even in territories where there isn’t a widespread
culture of music buying we can employ
commercial techniques, such as bundling music
in the cost of a device or broadband subscription,
to ensure that music can be consumed
legitimately and that revenue flows through to
the rights holders and to the artists.”
Martin Mills, Founder and Chairman, Beggars Group
Rob Wells, Senior Vice President, Digital, Universal Music Group
International
Subscriptions
The subscription sector continued to grow in 2009 as services
such as TDC PLAY, Nokia Comes With Music, Spotify Premium
and Vodafone expanded. ISPs also showed renewed interest in
the digital music market, evidenced by the launch of Sky Songs
in the UK.
6
Other models continue to expand
Music streaming services like Spotify and Deezer continued to
expand in 2009, offering their services through applications on
the iPhone and other smartphones. Many of these services are
ad-supported and focus on music access rather than ownership,
offering unlimited music streaming at no cost to the consumer.
The ‘upselling’ of some of this broad user-base to premium tiered
services is critical to the long-term success of these companies.
“These different services are building up
audiences and giving people the chance
to get exposed to music in a licensed
environment without necessarily having
to pay, which for people without credit
cards or limited disposable income is to
be encouraged.”

Online music video streaming is another leading growth area for
the music industry. According to a study by Jupiter Research in
2009, sites such as YouTube dominate digital music activity in
Europe, with nearly one-third (31%) of all internet users watching
music videos online. Research by The Nielsen Company found
that the top category of online video viewed by teens in the US
was ‘entertainment videos and movies’. Vevo launched in the
US in December 2009 and by February 2010 it had become the
number one music entertainment network, also breaking into the
top 10 list of overall internet video properties (ComScore).
“Music fans have demonstrated their interest
in watching music videos online through
the enormous traffic generated by YouTube
and other on-demand services. Vevo was
created to improve the experience for both
consumers and advertisers with a new
premium environment dedicated to viewing
professionally produced content.”

An Improved Music Experience For Fans
An Improved Music
Experience For Fans
Music companies are experimenting with a variety of business
models, licensing as widely as possible and investing in product
innovation in order to deliver music legally in the way fans want,
wherever and whenever they want it. Monetising the activity of
a wider poll of music fans is vital for the further expansion of the
digital music market.
The digital music market has benefited from a more open and
technologically vibrant environment. A few years ago, portable
devices were not interoperable, music catalogues were limited
and mobile phones were tightly controlled by operators. Today, the
MP3 player is the most popular way for teens to consume music
around the world, with 39% saying the MP3 player is their primary
method of listening to music. This is followed not by CDs or radio,
but the home computer, which is the primary source of music for
33% of teens globally (The Nielsen Company, How Teens Use
Media, June 2009).
Growth in smartphone usage has also created many opportunities
in the mobile music sector. While email and text messaging
remain the predominant mobile data services, web browsing
and applications saw significant growth. In 2009 web browsing
on the mobile was the fastest growing mobile activity in the UK,
with more than one-fifth of mobile users now accessing the web
through their phones (The Nielsen Company).
2009 also provided a glimpse of the ‘cloud’ concept, where
consumers can access their music libraries from multiple
‘screens’ – online, mobile and soon through their TV. Increased
convergence and compatibility of devices will accelerate in the
coming years, further enhancing consumers’ experience of music.
Consumer insight leading to segmentation
A world of fragmented music tastes and preferences requires
great understanding of consumer expectations and behaviour.
In order to operate in this environment, music companies have
become more consumer-focused. Investment in customer
relationship management (CRM) tools, direct marketing
capabilities and research have been gradually stepped-up and
now feed into music companies’ broader strategies.
Consumer insight has led to investment in product innovation,
as well as improving music companies’ ability to steer the right
products to the right consumers through the most effective
channels at the right price. The digital market is seeing
developments in services that offer a simple music experience,
enabling fans to legitimately access music at low or no cost,
as well as services that offer a richer experience with more
added-value at a higher price point.
Operating in this segmented and sophisticated world also
poses challenges for digital music retailers. Building a viable
and attractive digital music service takes time. The main
difficulty lies in the services’ capacity to execute such complex
propositions in a global environment in a market dominated by
illegal distribution services.
“There is a trend towards streaming
subscription services utilising a mobile app
facilitated by the growth of smartphones.
There is an opportunity that is much more
portable for the consumer and scalable
because of the number of handsets in use.
If you look at the key trends in the music
business one can make a strong link to
technology and hardware improvements.”
Ronn Werre, President, EMI Music Services 8
Monetising The Mass Market
Monetising The
Mass Market
The challenge for music companies remains in monetising existing
digital music consumption. Although a growing proportion of
music companies’ revenues come from digital music, the sector
has not yet reached its full potential. In the US, 18% of internet
users aged 13+ regularly buy music digitally (NPD Group). In
Europe, digital adoption is even less widespread – only 8% of
internet users in the top five EU markets frequently buy music
digitally (Jupiter Research). Research conducted by Capgemini
found that 70% of all music consumed in the US, UK, France
and Germany came from digital channels. However, digital sales
accounted for only 30% of record companies’ revenues in these
markets combined.

The impact of piracy on the recorded music industry
Digital piracy remained one of the biggest obstacles for the
recording industry in its efforts to grow the online music business.
P2P piracy remained the most prevalent channel for massdistribution of unauthorised content, while other forms of
infringement, such as hosting sites, saw strong growth in 2009.
P2P file-sharing accounts for more than 20% of internet traffic
globally – in Latin America this increases to 35% and in Europe
to 29%. A disproportionately small number of users are driving a
large share of traffic. In an average month, the top 1% of heavy
traffic users account for 25% of total internet traffic, with the top
20% of heaviest traffic users accounting for 80% of all internet
traffic (Sandvine, Global Broadband Phenomena 2009).
Driven by the growth in smartphones, global mobile network
traffic increased rapidly in 2009. Web browsing remained the
number one application, although it grew at a slower rate
than streaming (e.g. YouTube, Hulu, MySpace) and web
downloads (e.g. RapidShare, Megaupload). Mobile networks
face the same challenges as fixed networks – increasing bandwidth
demands and subsequent congestion, bandwidth – hungry
applications negatively impacting subscriber quality of experience
and the ability of a few subscribers to monopolise bandwidth
resources (Allot Communications, Global Mobile Broadband
Traffic Report, 2009).
“All the efforts by digital music services and
the industry are hampered by piracy. It is not
enough for us to be pro-active; we also need the
help of governments to legislate in this space.”
Eric Daugan, Senior Vice President, Commercial Strategy,
Warner Music International EMEA

New research by Tera Consultants released in March 2010
highlighted the impact of digital piracy on the creative industries
in Europe. Building a Digital Economy: The Importance of
Saving Jobs in the EU’s Creative Industries found that job
losses in the creative industries most impacted by piracy could
reach as much as 1.2 million by 2015, up from 185,000 in 2008,
if no action against mass copyright infringement is taken. The
study highlighted that significant losses have already been
incurred, in the magnitude of €10 billion in 2008 alone for music,
film, TV series and software industries. The importance of
government action is also highlighted in the contribution of the
creative industries to Europe’s economy – the sector generates
€860 billion annually (or 6.9% of European GDP) and 14 million
jobs (6.5% of European jobs).

North America
The weakness in the US physical retail market has created a fertile
ground for digital services – iTunes is now the biggest music retailer
in the US, accounting for more than 25% of the overall music market,
followed by Walmart, Best Buy and Amazon (NPD Music Watch).
Digital sales in the US accounted for 43% of overall music revenues in 2009. 20.4% of all album sales by volume were digital in 2009, up
from 15.4% in 2008.
The US saw a 14% increase in sales in the top 10 in 2009, with two
albums breaking the three million threshold (Taylor Swift’s Fearless
and Susan Boyle’s I Dreamed A Dream) – no titles did so in 2008. Four
acts sold more than 10 million tracks online – Lady Gaga, Black Eyed
Peas, Michael Jackson and Taylor Swift. The US Latin market was the
most affected by falling sales in 2009, while country and jazz saw the
smallest drop in volume terms. Current releases continued to account
for the majority of CD sales by volume (57%), compared to 51% for
digital album sales.
Europe
Europe was the second fastest growing region for digital revenues
in 2009, up by 29.7%. The digital share of revenues in Europe is,
however, still below the global average at 13%.
The UK, Europe’s biggest market, showed signs of resilience with
strong growth in digital sales (+47.6%) and performance rights revenues (+8.1%) offsetting the decline in CD sales (-6.1%). Services like
iTunes, Amazon and Play continued to grow, with digital albums now
accounting for 12.5% of all album sales. The demise of physical
retailers such as Zavvi and many independent shops in 2009 also
aided the digital sector as consumers migrated to digital stores. The subscriptions market also saw strong growth with mobile
subscriptions and services like Sky Songs entering the market. The UK
Digital Economy Act 2010 was enacted in April, establishing a
graduated response process that will enable rights holders to
approach ISPs with evidence of serious copyright infringement.
10
Under this approach, ISPs will notify users whose accounts have been
used illegally and advise them to migrate to legal services. Serious
repeat offenders who do not stop their illegal behaviour could face
sanctions such as temporary account suspension.
In Ireland, a High Court ruling in April 2010 helped to prepare the way
for the introduction of new measures to reduce illegal file-sharing in
the country. The ruling confirmed the legality of a graduated response
system to address illegal file-sharing and declared that an agreement
struck in 2009 between Eircom, the country’s largest ISP, and the music
industry to tackle internet piracy did not violate data protection laws.
Germany continued to close the gap as the second largest music
market in Europe, closely following the UK. The rate of decline in the
physical sector remained below the global average (-5.3%) and digital
sales grew strongly (+22.9%), resulting in an overall market decline of
3.0%. A stable physical retail sector, conservative consumer behaviour
and attractive CD packaging with additional features and special
editions have helped the German market performance. Physical
sales still account for 85% of music revenues in Germany, the highest
proportion in Western Europe after Portugal (86%) – this compares to
a European average of 78%.
Consumer research showed that the number of German music buyers
increased slightly in 2009, from 39.6% to 39.8% of the population,
with the number of heavy buyers also up from 4.3% to 4.7%. Around
5% of music consumers in Germany account for 34% of the music
market, while 26% buy one to three music products a year.
France’s physical rate of decline slowed significantly in the second
half of the year, with the overall market dropping by 2.7% in 2009.
Digital sales were slightly down (-1.9%) reflecting a sharp decline in
mastertone and mobile track download sales. Online sales, however,
grew strongly and streaming revenues more than doubled. 7% of
all album sales were in digital formats in 2009. French repertoire
continued to suffer. The prolonged industry fall has led to fewer new
artist signings – there were 70 new signings in 2009 compared to 104
in 2005 and 171 in 2002. Moreover, spending on marketing fell by
18% in 2009 alone and by 44% over the past 10 years (SNEP).
The ‘Creation and Internet’ or HADOPI law on graduated response
entered into force in France in October 2009 and is due to be
implemented in 2010. The new law enables the administrative
authority of HADOPI to send warnings to infringers via their ISPs. After
two warnings within six months and a third infringement after one year,
the authority transfers the files of repeat infringers to the criminal courts
where a judge will be empowered to order the suspension of internet
access for up to one year, as well as other criminal penalties.
Inadequate IP protection online limits the development of new business models in Canada
Canada has seen one of the biggest declines in music sales among
the major music markets, with sales more than halving since 1998.
This fall exceeds that of any other top 10 market during this period,
except for Spain. At the core of this dramatic decline is the inability of
the digital sector to offset the drop in the CD business.
Lack of legislation that
provides adequate IP
protection
Online piracy
Canada has one of the most advanced broadband markets and one
of the highest per capita GDP rates in the world. Traditionally, the value
of Canada’s physical market has been the equivalent of around 10%
of the US physical market. Yet, its digital music market is only around
4% of the size of the US digital market and less than a third of the
UK’s digital market size. This unfulfilled potential in the digital sector is
a direct result of the lack of new entrants in the market, an extremely
high online piracy rate and the lack of modern and robust IP protection
for the digital space.
Unfair competition
with legitimate music
services
Uncertain returns
on investment
Physical piracy has never threatened the Canadian market
in the same way as online piracy. Canada never crossed the 5%
physical piracy rate, yet its digital piracy rate is estimated
at 96%. Canada has one of the highest levels of online piracy in the
world. A 2004 study by the OECD, found that Canada had the highest
per capita rate of P2P use among OECD countries. Other forms of
file-sharing also present significant additional threats.
Canada is also a major source of the world’s digital piracy problem,
with a disproportionate number of illegal sites hosted on Canadian soil.
One of the main reasons for this lies in the fact that Canada has weak
and ineffective laws to protect creative product exploitation online.
Canada’s Copyright Act is outdated for the digital age, meaning there
is no legal certainty for rights owners regarding their work’s protection
online. Canada is alone among virtually all developed nations that have
passed laws that are consistent with the 1996 WIPO Treaties, to which
Canada is a signatory.
Canada currently lacks an adequate legal environment that online
businesses need to be confident they can earn a return on their
investment. Digital retailers, in partnership with music companies,
have introduced numerous innovative services all over the world in
recent years, but very few launched in Canada.

The impact of piracy on local talent development in Spain
Spain has been one of the worst-performing recorded music
markets in Western Europe over the last five years. While
European sales fell by 23% between 2005 and 2009, Spanish
sales dropped at nearly double that rate (43%). Today, the Spanish
market is 38% of its value in 2001.
In 2004, an album needed to sell around 26,000 copies to reach
#1 in the Spanish charts. In 2008, this dropped to 13,000 units
and in 2009 this fell further to only 7,000 units. Over the past five
years, Spain has lost a number of wholesalers and specialty music
shops. These businesses combined accounted for around 20% of
the retail sector in Spain.
It is not a coincidence that illegal P2P usage in Spain is more than
double the European rate. Broadband arrived at a comparatively
early stage of Spain’s internet market development. Mass-market
affordable broadband resulted in millions of new internet users
exposed to high-speed, always-on broadband. This resulted in
the acceleration of illegal music downloading. A total of 8.6 million
people are estimated to engage in illegal file-sharing, with 80% of
16-24 year old internet users downloading music illegally (GfK, 2008).

Focus groups conducted among young consumers (15-24)
in 2008 by GfK, highlighted that while most were aware of the
illegality of P2P networks, they felt justified in continuing with their
actions. The widespread perception among young consumers
was that there were no sanctions in place for downloading illegally.
Research also demonstrated that the growth in P2P activity has
had a direct impact on CD sales, with 63% of P2P users reducing
the number of CD purchases – with this figure rising to 74%
among 25-34 year olds. Moreover, 44% of illegal downloaders
were from a middle-class background and a further 29% from
upper-middle class, underlining the cannibalisation of legitimate
purchases (GfK, 2006).
As a result of declining revenues, music companies are finding it
more difficult to develop new talent in Spain. The strength of A&R
in Spain, particularly until 2000, made Julio Iglesias, Alejandro
Sanz, Enrique Iglesias, Monica Naranjo, La Oreja De Van Gogh,
Estopa, Jarabe de Palo and David Bisbal international stars.
While 10 domestic new acts would be signed by a major music
company five years ago, today only three or four are signed every
year. This decline in investment has had an impact on the makeup of the Spanish market. Traditionally, around 80% of sales were
accounted for by local acts. Today, this has fallen to around 50%
with obvious long-term impacts to Spanish culture.

Sweden’s carrot and stick approach delivers results
Research carried out by GfK in June 2009 found that 60% of
music file-sharers stopped using P2P or reduced their activity
after the introduction of IPRED. Of those, half (49%) said they
had moved to Spotify.
Spotify continues to be the star of the Swedish market. The
service has overtaken iTunes to become the biggest digital music
retailer in Sweden. Spotify has well over one million active users
in a country with a population of nine million people. Despite
Spotify’s success, iTunes sales continue to grow in Sweden, with
digital albums performing particularly well.

Music sales in Sweden were up by 11.9% in 2009, with physical
sales up 1.4%, digital sales more than doubling (+118.9%) and
performance rights revenues up 19.8%. Sweden saw the biggest
sales increase in music sales in 2009 in Europe. The IPRED
law was implemented in Sweden on the 1st April 2009. The law
enabled rightholders, via court order, to require ISPs to provide
the identity of an infringer. Media coverage surrounding the
introduction of the law traces back to late February 2009 around
the same time as The Pirate Bay (TPB) trial. Music sales in Sweden
subsequently saw a significant increase, led by the growth in
popularity of Spotify.
Digital Music Sales (SEK)
Spotify’s mobile application was launched at the end of 2009 and
was instrumental in increasing the conversion rate to the paidfor premium service. In the beginning of December 2009, Telia
announced a partnership with Spotify whereby the ISP bundles
the premium music service with some of its packages. This
strategy placed the music service on Telia’s Christmas marketing
campaign. Spotify is today a mass-market, established brand in
Sweden, attracting not only young consumers but a more mature
demographic – particularly important for the premium conversion.
The Telia-Spotify partnership highlights the importance of
marketing in the success of digital music services, and also how
music services can be of strategic importance to ISPs. Music
is a powerful marketing tool to ISPs and such partnerships are
expected to expand in 2010 in Sweden and abroad.
The focus on both deterrence and legitimate alternatives, with
the IPRED implementation, TPB verdict and Spotify’s growth,
has resulted in Sweden’s significant market turnaround. The
‘stick’ – IPRED and TPB verdict – was instrumental in creating
an opportunity for a shift in behaviour, which was harnessed by
Spotify and other legitimate services (the ‘carrot’).

Asia-Pacific
In Asia, 26% of music companies’ revenues are now sourced
from digital channels. Digital platforms in China, Indonesia, South
Korea and Thailand now account for more than half of all music
sales in those countries. While the region as a whole experienced
a 9.2% decline in sales, excluding Japan, the region would have
grown by 2.5%.
Music sales in Japan fell by 10.8% in 2009, following years of
resilience. The economic downturn had a big impact on retail,
contributing to the 15.8% fall in physical sales. Growing ubiquity
of music and rising piracy are also key factors driving the decline.
The digital market saw a 7.1% rise in value, with both online and
subscription revenues growing by more than 20% and ringback
tunes continued to prosper.
Australia posted a positive result in 2009, with overall sales up
4.3%. Digital sales grew strongly (+43.4%) offsetting a modest
decline in physical sales (-2.1%). Top selling albums by Susan
Boyle and Michael Bublé made a significant contribution to CD
sales in the year. iTunes continued to lead the online market.
Digital albums were up by 68%, accounting for 28% of digital
revenues and 7.5% of overall album sales volume. Single track
downloads also posted a strong increase of 46% in value.
Mastertones revenues fell significantly, but this drop was, to a
large extent, offset by an increase in mobile single track
downloads. The subscription business, led by services from
Nokia and Omnifone, was the fastest-growing digital sector, now
accounting for 5% of digital revenues in Australia. There were 18
Australian acts among the top 100 singles in 2009 and 26 local
titles among the top 100 albums.
After several years of steep decline, New Zealand’s music sales
saw a relatively small drop of 2.1%. The large dent in physical
purchases was partly offset by an increase in digital sales.
Successful titles by Susan Boyle and Michael Jackson helped
some of this recovery in 2009. The proposed amendment to
the Copyright Act 1994, addressing online file-sharing, should
improve the music market conditions in New Zealand. The bill
would put in place a three-notice graduated response regime,
with notices sent by internet service providers upon notice of
infringement from copyright holders, and possible remedies of
monetary compensation or account suspension. The enactment
of the bill should bring positive change in 2011.
The change in environment for copyright industries in
South Korea
Recent developments in South Korea have transformed
the business environment for recorded music, with music
sales growing by 10.4% in 2009. The change of government
stance in 2007 coupled with the positive attitude of the new
administration in 2008 brought a more copyright-friendly
approach to a market previously plagued by online piracy
and a hard-hit physical music sector. The implementation
of new legislation to fight online piracy and the roll-out of
new business models has fostered a new environment for
legitimate music. South Korea is an example of a market
where both ‘carrot’ and ‘stick’ factors are now present,
resulting in renewed vibrancy and investment in music.
In July 2008 a new provision in the law was introduced
whereby internet users found to be repeatedly transferring
copyrighted content, who had been warned three times or
more, could have their internet accounts suspended for a
period of up to six months. Authorities were also given the
power to shut down message boards, blogs and forums for
copyright infringement after three notices. The new graduated
response legislation was passed in April 2009 and became
effective in July 2009. This marked a shift towards legitimate
business models, acting as a catalyst for deals between
music companies and new partners seeking licences for
music distribution.
Alongside the decisive action taken by the government,
2008 was also the year that legal unlimited MP3 subscription
services offering a wide range of domestic and international
repertoire took off. Today, major players like Soribada,
M.Net Media, LoEn Entertainment and Neowiz Bugs all offer
unlimited MP3 subscription services.

Latin America & Caribbean’s strong growth in digital and in
performance rights revenues in 2009 nearly offset the decline in
physical sales, with the region’s overall revenues falling by 0.7%.
The region also overtook Europe in terms of digital share, with
14% of revenues coming from digital channels, compared to
Europe’s 13%.
Brazil remains the biggest market in the region and grew by 0.5%
in 2009. Mexico also saw a positive result, growing by 0.2%. The
launch of digital stores like iTunes Mexico and Mixup Digital as
well as the increase in streaming activity contributed to a 35.6%
growth in digital sales.
A new generation of music services in Brazil
Music sales in Brazil peaked in 1997 at US$0.5 billion, when
the country was the 6th largest music market in the world. A
combination of persistent CD piracy and significant levels of
illegal downloading have resulted in the Brazilian music market
more than halving in value between 1997 and 2009. Brazil is still
the 11th largest music market in the world and the biggest in
Latin America & Caribbean.
2009 marked the expansion of a new generation of ‘music
access’ services. The development of these services promises to
inject new growth in the Brazilian digital music market, although
piracy remains a key barrier. In the mobile sector, growth in
smartphone sales and 3G is driving services like Nokia’s Comes
With Music. Online, ISP bundled subscription and streaming
service Terra Sonora is making a measurable impact, as is YouTube.

customers), making ease of payment a key feature in the success
of the service. Brazil has a very low credit card penetration (25%)
and low online payment trust levels.
In February 2009, Sonora launched a new service tier – 20
hours of music streams per month, free-to-consumer on an
ad-supported basis. The new offer has attracted more than three
million users in less than one year, broadening Sonora’s reach and
the digital market in Brazil.
Physical sales in Brazil were up (+0.4%) for the second
consecutive year. The economic recovery during the second
half of 2009, releases by long-standing acts such as Roberto
Carlos, Michael Jackson and Xuxa, and strong sales of ‘gospel’
acts Padre Fabio de Mello, Padre Marcelo Rossi and Padre Fabio
Manzotti also contributed to the positive result.
Sonora launched in 2006, offering unlimited music streaming
and a tethered subscription service. Sonora’s subscription fee is
bundled with the ISP bill (the service is also available to non-Terra

Global Top 50
Best Selling Albums
Susan Boyle’s debut I Dreamed A Dream was the best selling
album of 2009, reaching sales of 8.3 million units globally. This is
the biggest-selling #1 album since Coldplay’s 2005 release X&Y.
The only other female acts to sell more than eight million with
one title in one year in the last decade were Norah Jones, Avril
Lavigne and Dido. Only 2% of Susan Boyle’s album sales were
in digital format, compared to an average of 8.2% across the top
50 (versus 6.1% in 2008), highlighting the continuing strength of
physical sales for some titles during the Christmas period.
Michael Jackson was the best selling artist of the year with 22.9
million units sold across eight albums reaching the global top 50.
6% of the sales were in digital format.
The global top 50 album sales fell by 2.6% compared to 2008,
while the top 10 sales were up by 3.4%. Twilight OST had
the highest digital share of sales among the top 50 (22%).
Other albums with digital sales of over 20% were Jason Mraz’s
We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things and Kings of Leon’s Only
By The Night.
Two debut acts featured in the global top 50 – Susan Boyle
(UK) and Justin Bieber (Canada). Lady Gaga also reached the
top 50 with her 2008 debut album The Fame.
Eight albums re-appeared in the 2009 top sellers with strong sales
for the second consecutive year – Beyoncé’s I Am...Sasha Fierce,
P!nk’s Funhouse, Taylor Swift’s Fearless, Kings of Leon’s Only
By The Night, Nickelback’s Dark Horse, Michael Jackson’s
Thriller, Twilight OST and Jason Mraz’s We Sing. We Dance.

The recorded music industry remains a key component of the
broader music sector – a sector worth an estimated US$140
billion globally in 2009. Recorded music remained the second
largest music-related industry accounting for 18% of the global
broader music sector. Investment in developing artists’ careers
and new product release is at the heart of this broader music
sector, driving businesses as diverse as the live sector and
portable player manufacturers.
Continued declines in the radio advertising market and recorded
music sectors have lead to an estimated 8% drop in the broader
music sector in 2009. The largest music-related industry, radio,
saw advertising revenues drop by 12% in 2009 (PWC), driven
by the economic downturn and growing competition from the
internet.
The portable digital player market suffered a 6% decline in
retail revenue in 2009 due to saturation in some regions and
competition from MP3 capable phones (FutureSource). Musical
instrument sales saw the sharpest drop ever recorded, reflecting
the impact of the economic downturn. All musical instrument
categories saw a double-digit reduction in sales in 2009 (Music
Trades).
Among the growth sectors, the live sector is estimated to have
increased by 4% globally in 2009 and the songwriter copyright
sector posted a small increase over 2008. The performance rights
market saw the biggest increase in 2009, although the sector only
accounts for 1% of the broader music sector.

Songwriters’ musical copyright and the publishing sector
The net value of songwriters’ musical copyright is estimated
at US$9.6 billion for 2009, edging the top line up only slightly
on the year before and comprising mainly of performing,
mechanical and sync licence income. The majority of this
revenue comes through collecting societies, with sync, stage
and print mainly being licensed by publishers directly. This ‘net
value’ adjusts for the double counting of mechanical income
which is already captured within the IFPI trade values. This estimate is comprised of two parts: firstly US$8.4 billion
representing total revenues from over 200 collecting societies
which make up CISAC, the umbrella body. To estimate
collections for 2009, the CISAC reported revenues for 2008
were projected forward with a published Music & Copyright
forecast. The second revenue stream of US$1.2 billion refers
to royalties that are collected outside of the society framework,
and refer mainly to sync income which is licensed directly by
the publisher on behalf of the songwriter.
Physical trade value sales fell by 42% between 2005 and
2008, songwriter copyright royalties rose by 15% in the same period. By Will Page and Bruce Dickinson, PRS for Music
The Broader Music Industry
The music-games sector
In 2009, revenues from music-related video games in the
US suffered a dramatic fall of 46%, totalling US$1.1 billion or
12% of the US video game software market. The decline in
this genre was responsible for a large portion of the overall
softness in US video game software sales, which declined by
10% in 2009 compared with 2008. In 2008, US consumers
spent just under US$2.0 billion on music-related video game
software, accounting for almost 18% of all US video game
software sales in that year. In 2005, when Guitar Hero was
introduced, the music game genre only generated US$132
million, or 2% of video games software sales.
Though the figures may appear bleak, NPD notes that music
games are the #3 selling genre in the US. Masking the health
of the genre, some of the decline is tied to older platforms,
for example PS2 consumers who are no longer upgrading
software. That could be an opportunity as they migrate to next
generation consoles. NPD has observed that there is also
some consumer resistance to higher-priced bundles which
include instrument packages and accessories. Consumers,
especially those who have some accessories already, may be
looking to more bare bones packages that simply offer more
music or play experience. The economic environment may
also be factoring in.
Certainly there is a level of saturation in music gaming and the
sector may not experience the sales levels of 2008. However
clever promotion of individual songs and new software titles
from exciting artists and bands do represent an opportunity.
