This huge increase is arguably due to the affordability of the <a href=\"http:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/how-to-get-your-music-on-amazon-music-unlimited-for-free\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">premium subscription services<\/a> in Hungary, averaging at around \u20ac5.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAlthough many of these users are part of a family subscription, this is already a decent number and gives hopes for the future,\u201d Paumero explains. Like most countries, pre-pandemic Hungary was looking at a continued year of growth for recorded music income.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, according to Paumero the effects of the pandemic have been varied as many established artists delayed their releases in the hope of being able to tour in support of them, leaving a gap filled by younger artists who upped their recording activity and reached \u201camazing numbers\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>8% of Hungary\u2019s population are now signed up to a premium streaming account.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":83640,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1,11109],"tags":[765,7011,18422,22410,22408,28,22407,22406,22409],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.4.1 -
