On-Demand Music Content Now Stands At The Center Of US Recording Industry
While some artists see streaming as a thorn in the marketing side of music business, the recording industry itself can look at it as its future and saving grace.
Indeed, according to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), the country’s recording industry made more money last year at $7.026 billion from just $6.951 billion in 2014. The 0.09 percent increase was brought about mostly by sales coming from music streaming across various platforms such as Spotify, Tidal, Pandora, and iTunes.
