Vinyl records outsold digital download in the UK last week
The Entertainment Retailers Association (ERA) said vinyl sales earned the record industry 2.4m in week 48 of 2016, while downloads took in 2.1m.
It is a significant shift in how people are consuming music. In November last year it was reported that vinyl albums made 1.2m in sales while digital records made 4.4m.
The ERA, which used Official Charts data, suggested that this surge in vinyl sales could be due to customers giving friends and family vinyl as Christmas presents, along with the growing number of retailers, such as Tesco, Sainsburys and HMV, which now stock vinyl.
