These percentages are completely meaningless without the actual figures underlying them, and what the measures are. How do you meaure streaming/downloads? In tracks, albums, hours or Euros?
Example: last year’s number 100, this year’s number 188, an increase of 88%.
Last year’s number 120000, this year’s number 1000800, a decrease of 12%.
sorry, correction: the last line should of course read 120000, 100800 and 16%.
