HANG IN THERE
There are now 832 million paid users of digital music worldwide and that number is expected to almost double to 1.555 billion in 2014
While there has been much debate about the impacts of the global recession on consumer discretionary spending, IEMR is forecasting a significant increase in the number of users who will be accessing their music through various digital channels, including online downloads, mobile downloads, and subscription downloads of online portals. We are estimating that the total number of paid users of digital music worldwide will reach 832.5 million in 2010, and this number is going to increase to 1.555 billion by the end of 2014, for a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 16.9%.
This forecast is higher than our previous 3Q.2009 Digital Music Forecast and represents relatively robust survey data we have seen in our Global Consumer Telecommunications Survey Panel.
While the number of music users downloading their music through their mobile handsets will increase from 507 million in 2009 to over 1 billion in 2013, the greatest growth in the global digital music industry will happen through subscriptions to both online and mobile music channels.
