What we're showing
This chart (coincidentally known as a stream graph) provides a historical look at music revenue, by format.
Key takeaways
– CDs were the dominant format throughout the late '90s and 2000s, but have since been replaced by streaming services.
– Ringtone sales had a moment in 2007, peaking at $11 billion. Interestingly, they still generated $11 million in 2022.
– Vinyl sales grew in 2022, and surveys reveal that millennial consumers are actually propelling the sales, not Gen X or Baby Boomers as one might expect.
