　　以下是来自CNTV的报道:

　　Adele, whose album "25" has rocked the year in more ways than one. From sales to digitalstrategy, the British pop artist is taking center stage in the music industry.

　　2015 had been a largely uneventful year for music sales. Enter British songstress Adele. Her album"25" strolled in at the end of the year - breaking records for the biggest sales week in U.S. history.

　　Despite digital music becoming a game-changer for the music industry, Adele chose not to streamher full album. It's a strategy that means consumers have to buy the record outright - boostingthe number of albums sold.

　　The British singer joins a growing number of artists taking a more prominent role in how theircontent is accessed.

　　Taylor Swift withheld her album '1989' from Apple Music over its three-month free trial offered tosubscribers. Swift objected because it meant writers, producers, and musicians wouldn't get paid.Fear of missing out led the tech giant to reverse its policy, saying it would pay royalties.

　　Apple joins other digital music services like Spotify, Pandora, and QQ Music to battle for exclusivecontent.

　　Global digital music revenue continues to climb. The IFPI says it neared seven billion dollars in2014. It's on track to overtake market share from physical forms like CDs and vinyl.

　　But not all musicians are eager to go digital.

　　In an interview with Time Magazine, Adele says she doesn't use streaming because it's disposable,and she feels music should be an event. It just goes to show that for some musicians andconsumers, there's no substitute for holding music in your hands.
