Article

by Austin Bernhardt September 17, 2012

The data- and trend-mapping company Musicmetric has released the first edition of its Digital Music Index—an analysis of who's downloading what, where—and the U.S.A. is No. 1, as always. More specifically, the United States has been ranked No. 1 worldwide in the number of music files downloaded illegally, racking up almost 97 million in the first half of this year alone. The United Kingdom comes in a distant second with just over 43 million downloads. (TorrentFreak adds that Manchester is the most active city in the U.K. London comes in at a paltry 20th.)

According to Complex, Drake is the most illegally downloaded artist in America, which is quite the bittersweet accomplishment. Oddly enough, Kanye West is the most illegally downloaded artist in Canada, with Americans and Canadians apparently crossing each other's borders to steal each other's rap stars.


Still, can't get to excited though because the UK is beating us per capita on piracy. I mean, slightly less then half the number of downloads with only a population about 11% the size of the US? We got the raw numbers, but we are going to need to pick up our game if we want to really be undisputed No.1 music piracy country.

Amidst the mists and coldest frosts he thrusts his fists against the posts and still insists he sees the ghosts.
