WINTEL

WINTEL is WIN’s flagship market research project, mapping the global independent recorded music market.

WIN has produced three WINTEL reports to date mapping the global market share of the independent sector at copyright, rather than distribution level. The results represent the most comprehensive assessment of the global independent record label sector ever compiled. Each one analyzes data from the previous year, covering the period 2015 to 2017.
