Numbers for Digital's Rise(数字化增长数字)

Nat Torkington Nat Torkington 2008-10-06

I talk a lot to people who don't quite understand the scale of the media shift from atoms to bits (update: corrected), so I always have my eyes open for numbers and anecdotes that illustrate the point. The latest I found are from an article on Apple's threat to shut the iTunes store if it has to pay more to songwriters:

Digital downloads grew 38 per cent from 2006 to 2007 to become a $1.26 billion business, making up 23 per cent of the market for recorded music, according to the Recording Industry Association of America. Sales of physical music media such as CDs, cassettes and DVDs declined 19.1 per cent to $7.5 billion in the same one-year period.

I'm still looking for convincing numbers on film and TV movement to digital. For example, does anyone have numbers on how well Dr Horrible's Singalong Blog (the web-only offering from Buffy creator Joss Wedon) did?

我一直致力于给那些不是很清楚媒体多大程度上从物理世界转向信息世界的人解释这种发展,所以我总是关注这方面的数字和进展情况。最近的一个发现就是一篇文章,Apple威胁如果音乐作者要求更多报酬公司就会关掉iTunes store

根据美国唱片工业协会的统计,数字化媒体下载从2006年到2007年增长了38%,达到12.6亿美元,占音乐市场的23%。包括CD、卡带和DVD在内的物理音乐媒体的销售同期下滑了19.1%,为75亿美元。

我还没有电影和电视内容这种数字化转变的可靠数字。有人知道《恐怖博士的吟咏坊》(Buffy的制作人Joss Wedon推出的网络迷你剧)的销售数字吗?
