Interesting figures Jon ....


Argentina makes sence, since that country is going through economical disaster. As for France ........ hmmm .... I do know that France has a law about airplay for French productions. Like during Prime Time at least ?? % needs to be French productions and overal needs to be ??% .... not sure about the exact percentages but I do know they are way high compared to other european countries. In Belgium for example (there is no law whatsoever concerning these things) radio averages only 7 or 8 % Belgian productions.

Anyhow ... I doubt that has something to do with the increase in sales unless they only reflect national productions ... but since they don't ..... not sure ....
