Summary

Introduction

UK Music & Video Retailers 2006 analyses the music & video market in the UK as it continues to see slow growth and consolidation. The report looks at the dynamics, growth trends and drivers, key indicators and profiles the top operators in the market including HMV, Virgin, Tesco and Asda, covering market share performance between 2001 and 2006.

Scope

Market size, sales including category sales and growth rates for 2001-2006 and forecasts to 2011.
Sales through distribution channels including specialists, non-specialists, pureplay online retailers and grocers, and share of music & video spend.
Analysis by retailer, with market shares, store profile statistics and sales densities for 2001-2006.

Highlights

The last two years have been immensely challenging for music & video retailers. Following a 5.0% fall in spending in 2005, the market is on track for a further decline of 1.7% in 2006

While illegal downloading shows little sign of significant slowdown, strong growth is forecast for legal downloading. We estimate the legal digital downloading market will have increased by more than 80% between 2005 and 2006.

We believe market leader HMV is turning a corner as a business. Having significantly lowered its prices and simplified its price architecture, HMV is now fit to compete directly with grocers and online players. And having ramped up its advertising spend substantially, the retailer is communicating these stronger price credentials to consumers.

Reasons to Purchase

Identify the growth prospects with detailed analysis of the key issues and drivers of the market.
Understand each retailer's store portfolio, retail proposition and future outlook.
