Digital download sales are mantaining a growing trend: Nielsen SoundScan figures of the US market shows that digital album sales are gone up 125% compared to the same period last year, with single tracks up 77%. This still represent only about 5% of total album sales, but for the album market it marks a more than double increase compared to sales in the same period of 2005.
On the other side, overall sales of physical album dipped 4.2% during the first two quarter of the year.
That’s a drop of 12 million unit.
