Video is still dominating as music listeners are homebound
Physical album sales are a different story: falling to 747,000 copies versus an average of 1.376 million copies in the first 10 weeks of the year. Even vinyl, which was growing by leaps and bounds, dropped 44.44% from the prior week due to all the store closures. According to Alliance Entertainment, more than 150 indie stores have temporarily closed nationwide, including the entire Newbury Comics chain and all of the Bull Moose chain.
In terms of genre breakdowns, Christian/gospel saw the biggest increase: up 5.8% to 426.5 million from 403 million. Next, country streams jumped 5.5% to 1.434 billion from 1.359 billion. However, both of those genres posted negative growths the prior week ending Mark 19 , so this might signify a return to normal for fans of those genres.
For the week ending March 26, jazz, New Age, world, dance and blues all had slight upsticks -- each under 1%. Rock, Latin and R&B/hip-hop all declined for another week, albeit at much slower rates. Rock, which had been down 4.5% for the week ending March 19, fell 0.7% to 3.28 billion; R&B/hip-hop, which had been down 6.9%, dropped 2.3% to 7.22 billion from 7.5 billion; and Latin, which was the industry biggest loser in the week-ending March 19 with a 13.7% decline, fell another 2.
