Un’ottava per Italia musicale

L’Italia è ottava nel mercato mondiale della musica. E il mercato si riduce. Uno studio europeo sulla musica e la diversità culturale.

“Italy was worldwide ranked 8th in physical sales, 10th in digital sales and 8th in performance rights income in 2007. In the same year, the total industry trade revenue of the Italian music market was €266M. This turnover was generated by physical sales for 87%, digital sales for 7%, and performance rights exploitation for 6%. Physical sales decreased by 30% from 2005 to 2007. Conversely, digital music sales rose by 51,2% in 2006 and rather stabilised in 2007, but still represent a small percentage (in 2007, they accounted for 7,2% of total recorded music sales). This means that the digital music market cannot be seen as a mature market yet.”
