2021 = $26.16 billion
The global music industry share can be calculated by using the following formula,
Global music industry share = (Global music market size / Global E&M market size) x 100
Global music industry share (2017) = ($37.4 billion / $1.88 trillion) x 100 = 1.99%
Global music industry share (2018) = ($39.32 billion / $1.95 trillion) x 100 = 2.02%
Global music industry share (2019) = ($41.33 billion / $2.04 trillion) x 100 = 2.03%
Global music industry share (2020) = ($43.49 billion / $2.12 trillion) x 100 = 2.05%
Global music industry share (2021) = ($45.7 billion / $2.2 trillion) x 100 = 2.08%
The global market size of AI in music is then calculated using the following formula,
Global market size of AI in music = Global music market share x Global market size of AI in E&M industry
Global — AI in music (2017) = 1.99% x $5.03 billion = $100 million
Global — AI in music (2018) = 2.02% x $7.6 billion = $153 million
Global — AI in music (2019) = 2.03% x $11.48 billion = $233 million
Global — AI in music (2020) = 2.05% x $17.33 billion = $355 million
Global — AI in music (2021) = 2.08% x $26.16 billion = $544 million
United States — AI in music Market Size
Assuming the CAGR to remain at 3.6% over the period 2017-2021, the U. S market size of the E&M industry can be calculated for each year in the period mentioned by using the reverse CAGR calculator. The following are the market size values of the E&M industry.
US E&M Market Size with a CAGR of 3.6%
2017 = $657.86 billion
2018 = $681.5 billion
2019 = $706 billion
2020 = $731.5 billion
2017 = $18.16 billion
2018 = $19.18 billion
2019 = $20.25 billion
2020 = $21.39 billion
The United States market size of AI in the entertainment and media industry can be calculated by using the following formula,
U. S Market size = Global market size of AI in E&M x (U. S E&M market size / Global E&M market size)
U. S Market size of AI in E&M (2017) = $5.03 billion x ($657.86 billion / $1.88 trillion) = $1.76 billion
U. S Market size of AI in E&M (2018) = $7.6 billion x ($681.5 billion / $1.95 trillion) = $2.66 billion
U. S market size of AI in E&M (2019) = $11.48 billion x ($706 billion / $2.04 trillion) = $3.97 billion
U. S market size of AI in E&M (2020) = $17.33 billion x ($731.5 billion / $2.12 trillion) = $5.98 billion
U. S Market size of AI in E&M (2021) = $26.16 billion x ($759 billion / $2.2 trillion) = $9.05 billion
The U. S music industry share of the total entertainment and media industry can be calculated for each year by the following formula,
U. S music industry share = (U. S music industry market size / U. S E&M market size) x 100
U. S music industry share (2017) = ($18.16 billion / $657.86 billion) x 100 = 2.76%
U. S music industry share (2018) = ($19.18 billion / $681.5 billion) x 100 = 2.81%
U. S music industry share (2019) = ($20.25 billion / $706 billion) x 100 = 2.87%
U. S music industry share (2020) = ($21.39 billion / $731.5 billion) x 100 = 2.92%
The U. S market size of AI in music is then calculated using the following formula,
U. S market size of AI in music = U. S music market share x U. S market size of AI in E&M industry
U. S — AI in music (2017) = 2.76% x $1.76 billion = $48.6 million
U. S — AI in music (2018) = 2.81% x $2.66 billion = $74.75 million
U. S — AI in music (2019) = 2.87% x $3.97 billion = $113.9 million
U. S — AI in music (2020) = 2.92% x $5.98 billion = $174.6 million
U. S — AI in music (2021) = 2.98% x $9.05 billion = $269.7 million
Conclusion
To wrap up, the global and United States market size of AI in music has been estimated to be $153 million and $74.75 million, respectively, for the current year (2018) and is expected to reach a value of $544 million and $269.7 million, respectively, by the year 2021.
