Maddie is there any way to find out Adam's latest sales for Trespassing. He's been traveling so much, I just wonder if he's gotten to about 400,000 world wide,including the USA.Trespassing is no longer on the Media Traffic's radar starting the beginning of 2013, 'cuz they start fresh each calendar year unless the albums still keep churning out competitive numbers to stay on the list, for instance, Michael Bublé's Christmas (2011) sold another 356,000 units worldwide 2 weeks ago and sat at #36. Adam has been mostly traveling in Asia, particularly China which is not a major market for music sales at all. I'm afraid RCA would be the only one that has any idea at this point.  Thanks Maddie.. Ok then I'll just imagine that his sales numbers have to be going up somewhere in the world.In fact it seems like in the U.S. it has to have gone up a bit too. |

I haven't listened to Jason's new single yet but I like him. I like him even more since he and Jordin became a couple I have, let's just say it's nowhere near "Whatcha Say", or even "In My Head", but radio will play the crap out of it.  Jordin seems to be really sweet, multi talented, too, a lot of little girls look up to her. Oh, hon, here is something that might interest you as far as how labels nowadays still manage to make their dough: www.rollingstone.com/music/news/the-new-economics-of-the-music-industry-20111025 I saw that article and another out of the UK. Those are what prompted my question! If artists are getting big advances and the labels get a pittance from the sales, "How are the labels making their money?!" Every single would have to sell like Rumor Has It for labels to survive! And there are very few songs that are that big. |

I saw that article and another out of the UK. Those are what prompted my question! If artists are getting big advances and the labels get a pittance from the sales, "How are the labels making their money?!" Every single would have to sell like Rumor Has It for labels to survive! And there are very few songs that are that big. There're many unsuccessful investments or investments that did't achieve the expected return, when we look at them, of course we couldn't help wondering how in the world the record companies still manage to make their money?! Believe it or not, as a gigantic collective, they actually made a lot of dough last year. According to IFPI, " Global recorded music industry revenues rose by an estimated 0.3 per cent to US$16.5 billion in 2012, the first year of industry growth since 1999. Digital revenues saw accelerating growth for the second year running, up 9 per cent, with most major digital revenue streams - downloads, subscription and advertising-supported - on the rise." And in every revenue stream, the labels get the lion share, plus a proven heavy hitter like P!nk, or a new hot commodity like Fun, helps recoup the loss and still make a ton for the labels. There're thousands on the major label rosters and tens and thousands on the Indie's, a drop in the bucket but it all adds up. Oh, bb, have you seen this one, "Investing In Music" ( www.ifpi.org/content/section_news/investing_in_music.html )? It's only the summary but still a good read. |

IFPI's Recording Industry in Numbers 2013 London, 8th April 2013Among the finalised industry data published in this year's edition:- Overall global recorded music trade revenues increased by 0.2% in 2012, the first year of growth since 1999. All the revenue streams IFPI tracks (physical, digital, performance rights and synchronisation revenues), with the exception of physical sales, increased in 2012. A total of 21 countries saw market growth in 2012, including nine of the top 20 markets.
- The world's top 20 markets table shows that the US remains the world's largest music market; digital sales success in Sweden has made that country the world's 12th largest music market (up two places on 2011); India has also moved up the rankings.
- Digital channels now account for 35% of overall industry trade revenues, while physical sales now represent 57% of record companies' income. Downloads remain the biggest source of digital revenues, with combined unit sales of track and album downloads up by 11% in 2012.
- Music subscription services are seeing rapid growth. Music subscription and ad-supported streaming services now account for 20% of digital revenues globally, up from 14% in 2011. Subscription and ad-supported revenues combined now account for almost one third (31%) of all digital music revenues in Europe.
- Emerging markets are helping fuel the industry's recovery. Brazil, India and Mexico have seen market growth respectively of 24%, 42% and 17% since 2008. In 2012 revenues in India reached an all-time high while Latin America was the fastest growing region of the year.
- Albums continue to hold their appeal, accounting for 56% of recorded music sales value. Digital album downloads grew faster than singles and vinyl sales hit their highest point since 1997. Consumer usage on streaming services shows that the album format remains very relevant. Many of the year's best-selling albums generated a large streaming volume across all tracks included on the album.
- Sources of music licensing income are also on the rise. Performance rights revenues (from broadcasts and public performance) were the fastest growing sector in the recording industry in 2012, accounting for 6 per cent of recorded music revenues. Revenues grew by 9.4% globally, to US$943 million. Income from synchronisation deals - music used in TV adverts, films and brand partnerships - were also up. These grew by 2.1% to US$337 million in 2012.

Nice number for Fantasia! Good for her!! Her Idol performance was outstanding! I didn't even know Fantasia's got a new CD out...lol! Well, ya know me, there's only one Idol that's on my radar...  Speaking of numbers, will.i.am's album pales in comparison to his 2 singles, which feature Britney and Bieber --- the most commonly practiced strategy in the current music scene. |
