IFPI Engaging with Music Report 2022 - BPI quote

17 November 2022 - Press release

BPI Spokesperson: "Underpinning Engaging With Music 2022 is a theme of expanding choice in the way fans can enjoy the music they love, and its particularly telling that as much as a third of 16-24 UK respondents say they discover a new music artist at least weekly. Among the other fascinating insights is that the UK, at 52%, has the world's second-highest engagement with paid subscription services, while music is also driving radio's continued popularity, with as many as 79% of UK respondents saying they listen to radio mainly for the music – including more than half of 16-24 year-olds. Perhaps most significant of all, and contrary to some perceptions, is that the time spent listening to music each week is actually on the rise - at 20.1 hours."
