as does this just mean singles or any individual tracks bought?

Lies, damned lies, and statistics. This doesn't adjust for the dramatic drop in physical single production - you can't buy physically what doesn't exist!

But you can buy physically non-existing digital downloads. Maybe that is actually the solution to the economical crisis we are in!

true but what % of singles released this year included physical format - i would've thought it would still cover at least two thirds of the year's chart hits (top 40 if not 75) but no idea really
