First-Quarter Shipments Jump 20% In Sweden
Music shipments in Sweden during the first quarter rose 20% from the same period the year before to 6.8 million units, according to IFPI-affiliated trade body GLF. The value of shipments was up 14.5% to 353 million kronor ($34.3 million).
The gains were bolstered by
CDs, which rose 27% to 5.8 million units, with value up 15% to 332.2 million kronor ($32.2 million). Meanwhile, singles fell 9.5% to 917,000 units, with value down 7.5% to 15.6 million kronor ($1.5 million).
"I do believe the sales increase could have been even higher if we had encryption to prevent CD-R burning," says Warner Music Sweden managing director Sanji Tanda.
