Vinyl’s extraordinary resurgence is continuing at full strength in the UK.
According to data from the Entertainment Retailers Association (ERA), vinyl album sales outstripped digital with £2.4 million worth of sales to £2.1 in week 48 of 2016. As good as the figures look for vinyl – an increase of £1.2 million on 2015 – they are equally as bad for digital with a fall of £2.3 million on the same week last year.
This chart shows the value of vinyl and digital album sales in the UK in Week 48 of 2015 and 2016.
