在连续增长了十年之后，音乐市场有点涨不动了。 从已经发布的数据看，今年上半年，美国、英国、德国、法国和韩国等全球主要音乐市场的数据都比2024年同期出现了明显的下滑。 2025年上半年，美国录制音乐市场的收入增长不到1%，德国的录制音乐市场只涨了1.4%，英国、法国、西班牙和意大利的增长也不如去年同期，而韩国 音乐消费去年至今一直萎靡不振。 自2015年止跌回升后，全球音乐产业享受了连续十年的增长，如今却似乎又走到十字路口，未来走向充满不确定性。 数据来源：IFPI 音乐市场涨不动了 0.9%，这是全球最大音乐市场美国今年上半年的成绩单。这是一个足以令人担心的数字，哪怕是在数据不太好看的2024年上半年，美国音乐市场也有4% 的增长。 虽说有报告分析认为中国、巴西和墨西哥等新兴市场仍然有望保持较快速度增长，并将担负起全球音乐市场持续增长的重任，但从今年上半年的数字上 看，在排名前列的几个主要市场活力不足的情况下，今年全球录制音乐市场能否保持增长，真不太好说。 按照这个趋势发展下去，美国音乐市场十年来首次负增长并非危言耸听。在2024年上半年只增长了4%的情况下，美国音乐市场全年的增幅只有2.7%。 （RIAA ...
