Video game sales jump 32 percent last
month
04/15/2005 12:46 PMNew statistics released by analysts today indicate video game sales
jumped 32 percent in the U.S. during March.
With more than 532,000 units sold, Sony’s Gran Turismo 4 led the game
sales for March. It was followed by MVP Baseball 2005 from Electronic
Arts, which sold nearly 338,000 units.
Most analysts expect U.S. software sales to grow about 5 percent in
2005, driven by growing sales for handheld devices and the increased
availability of gaming consoles.
Sony sold 620,000 PlayStation Portables and 1.1 million units of
software after releasing the PSP on March 24. By comparison,
Nintendo’s DS has sold 428,000 units this year, analysts said. The DS,
which costs $100 less than the PSP, launched last year.
The supply of Sony's PlayStation 2 console continued to improve,
analysts said, with 495,000 sold in the month, compared with 227,000
units of Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox and 94,000 units of Nintendo's
GameCube. Microsoft has acknowledged the Xbox is in short supply,
which some retailers fear may continue through the year as the company
prepares to launch its next-generation console later this year.

Record sales up, P2P sales up -- RIAA's
story doesn't add up
Record sales up, P2P sales up -- RIAA's
story doesn't add up
03/24/2005 04:52 PMCory Doctorow:
According to the RIAA, CD sales are increasing. Now, the RIAA also
says that P2P destroys music sales, so it follows that if they're
selling more CDs there must be less P2P, right? Uh, no -- file-sharing
is up, too (so CD sales should be falling right?).
So is it possible that CD sales and P2P are decoupled (as all the
quantitative, independent research
a> indicates), and that the downturn in CD sales is better laid at the
feed of bad business, a bad economy, fewer albums and more things
competing for entertainment dollars (cough games cough Internet
cough).
The number of CDs and other music products shipped from record labels
to retail merchants rose 2 percent last year, to 814 million units,
the first annual increase in five years, according to the Recording
Industry Association of America.
