UK Digital Music Sales at a High

The BPI have released the sales figures for 2009. Legal digital downloads reached an all time high last year, coming in at over 115 million. Physical sales continue their decline since 2002, but no matter what those with a certain agenda tell you have not dropped enough to render the format "obsolete".

At under 2 million physical single sales in the UK, it might spell a new age for the music industry. While the age of the album has pretty much come to an untimely end thanks to iTunes and the like, this may be the only art-form left for commercial CD sales. The BPI have admitted that illegal downloads are not falling, but they cite this as evidence of re-growth in the music industry. Their figures show there are over 1 billion illegal music downloads every year in the UK now
