Revenues from the ad-supported audio segment are also up, up 22.9%, while there is a slight decline in video streaming revenues of -0.5%. Overall, digital now accounts for 84% of the market, in line with 2022 results. Positive signs also for the physical segment, which covers a 16 percent market share and closes the half-year at +9.4 percent: dominating is the stainless vinyl segment, which grows 14.3 percent and with a reversal for CD, also up 5.3 percent.
