Just Released New for 2026

Despite challenging market conditions worldwide, most online music retailers saw revenue increases in 2025, gained market share and seriously pressured their brick-and-mortar competitors. The 50 largest online music products retailers, a group that hails from 17 countries in Europe, Asia, North America, and Australia, posted $7.0 billion in aggregate revenues, up 4.5% from last year’s $6.7 billion. These gains are the continuation of a two-decade trend that saw online retail market share surge from less than 10% to the current level of approximately 50%. Online sellers will never capture 100% of the market, but it’s far from clear when they will max out.
