Why kids' music sales and streaming growth appears to be declining (it's not)

After three years of vacillation, the children’s music genre was on track to post its third consecutive market-share gain in 2020, for the measurement period of Jan. 3 to April 2, with its largest percentage increase in five years: 1.39% in combined sales and streaming. On April 9, however, Billboard and Nielsen Music/MRC Data streamlined the methodology they use to count on-demand audio streams to match the data verification parameters applied to on-demand video streams.

What would have been a 1.39% share of the U.S. market so far this year is now 0.62% for that period, according to this new methodology. Within that total, on-demand streaming of children’s music would have registered a 1.33% market share for that same period — compared with 0.57% for the entirety of 2016. Under’s new video streaming rules, however, the revised market share for first-quarter 2020 is 0.47%.
