Total digital revenues for 2012 are estimated at $5.6 billion, up 9% on 2011’s figure of $5.2 billion. Digital now accounts for more than a third of total industry revenues (34%) with digital revenues making up more than 50% of all recorded music income in Norway, Sweden and the U.S.

Despite increasing digital sales, the largest record labels have all reported a considerable decline in overall revenues from sales of recorded music to consumers in the first decade of the 21st century.[8] Revenues in the U.S. dropped by half over a decade, from a high of $14.6 billion in 1999 to $6.3 billion in 2009, according to Forrester Research.[3] Atlantic Records reports that digital sales have surpassed physical sales.[9] Worldwide revenues for CDs, vinyl, cassettes and digital downloads fell from $36.9 billion in 2000 [10] to $15.9 billion in 2010[11] according to IFPI. The Economist and The New York Times report that the downward trend is expected to continue for the foreseeable future[9][12] This dramatic decline in revenue has caused large-scale layoffs inside the industry, driven retailers (such as Tower Records) out of business and forced record companies, record producers, studios, recording engineers and musicians to seek new business models.[13]
