Friday now day for new music releases
Print Edition
MUSIC vendors around the world will start on July 10 to release albums globally on Fridays, ending most but not all regional variations, an industry group said.
The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry, the music industry’s global body, announced an agreement in February to start selling albums on Fridays but said that all sides needed time to sort out the logistics.
The IFPI said that labels, stores, artists and other stakeholders agreed that they would be ready on July 10 for Friday releases. The move covers all formats — CDs, vinyl, digital downloads and streaming.
“We think a global release day reflects the realities of the current global music business,” said Glen Barros, president of Concord Music Group.
