QYResearch Growth Drivers: Music Publishing 1. Diversified digital media outlets may open up new revenue streams for struggling publishers The Music Publishing industry is in the midst of an important transition. The fall of physical album sales and digital downloads over the past five years has forced publishers to seek new revenue sources and become less dependent on traditional licensing platforms. To meet changing consumer needs, music publishers are continuously cultivating licensing agreements with new revenue streams like mobile outlets, online radio platforms and subscription-based streaming music services. The industry's shift from high-margin physical album sales and digital downloads to online streaming music may result in continued challenges.

2. The industry is taking steps to improve the policing of illegal downloading.

QYResearch 4. In addition, with the number of total smartphones in use around the world expected to reach 4.7 billion by 2020 according to forecasts from PricewaterhouseCoopers, we expect that mobile will continue to represent significant opportunity for music-based content.

Figures from comScore’s July 2016 MobiLens Plus data release show that the uptake of music among users of such phones is significant: according to the data, more than half of existing smartphone users in the U.S. and 45% of their counterparts in the U.K., listened to music downloaded and stored or streamed on their handsets from services such as Apple Music and iTunes, Pandora, iHeartRadio, Deezer and Spotify, among other sources, during the month. We believe that the demand for music-related products, services and applications that are optimized for smartphones and tablets will continue to grow with the further development of these platforms.
