Global Release Day For All New Music Moving Closer
. (Classic Rock) The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry is expected to announce that singles and albums hoping to enter charts are to be released on Fridays all round the world. While Friday is already release day in Australia, Germany and other countries, it's traditionally been Monday in the UK and Tuesday in North America. The IFPI hope a global release day will capture increased sales as a result of trade being more busy as the weekend begins. Boss Frances Moore tells Music Week: "The whole dynamic of the global release day consultation has been driven by one thing and one thing only - how best to serve the music consumer. "We've had a long consultation involving retailers, artists and record labels. No one has seriously questioned the concept; the only debate has been about the day." Read more here.
