Finance Friday #1

Hi everyone,

This could be the first of many posts containing financial tidbits, statistics and other more or less useful information, or it could be a one off. Time will tell.

This one could be a little controversial because we are going to talk about how generous people are in different countries!

As some of you may know, we allow people to download our music for free, or to pay for it.

Below you’ll find percentages for the top 10 countries where we sell our music. 33% means that 1 out of 3 people who download our music directly from us, who happen to live in Italy, pay for it.

Italy: 33%

Germany: 30%

Australia: 20%

Belgium: 20%

France: 18%

Spain: 17%

Canada: 16%

United Kingdom: 14%

United States: 14%

Brazil: 12%

Can we conclude that Italians and Germans are more generous than Brits and Americans?!
