I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that CD sales have dropped off so dramatically with the ease of use of MP3 players etc etc. Although this may signify the beginning of the end for the 'music industry' (i.e. the huge money making side of music) I think the ways people can get there music out to the public these days makes it quite an exciting time for people creating new music.

However I can report that the music industry is alive and well with more people creating and enjoying music than ever before. There is a renaissance of the indie artist happening today with direct to fan marketing, online distribution of music, and the development of communities of like minded fans sharing music. What the infographic fails to show it the explosion of digitally distributed songs for free, which would be a fantastic addition to the chart, and would more accurately show what has happened to recorded music. <a href="http://www.futureofmusicbook.com" title="Click here to read more about the Future of Music" rel="nofollow"> <a href="http://www.musicpowernetwork.com" title="Click here to learn about a System for Success in the New Music Business" rel="nofollow"> You capture “The Death of the Recording Industry” quite well with this succinct infographic.

I see news about the health of the music industry as defined by the stock price of WMG or quarterly earnings of UMG, Sony, and EMI every day. What I don’t see, apart from a few articles on Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails, is an update on how the world is changing from the artist point of view. But I tell you, when I talk to managers and artists they feel it, they feel an ability to take their careers into their own hands, to redefine what success means for them, and that is the emergence of the new music business.

There should be a trail continuing to the right. This chart seems a bit lame. i.e. the CD sales can’t be correct because I’ve purchased 3 of them within the last 3 months.
