UK Top 40 Album Chart

The genre of this album chart varies, from indie/pop to jazzy/blues type of music. This is because the people who consume music have different taste to eachother and everyone likes different genres of music. Also, the album downloads can define the age group of people that have downloaded them and the age group of people that use downloads. Ella Henderson, Ed Sheeran, Jessie J and George Ezra are very recent artists into the music industry and are very popular with a broad range of people from young people to the elderly. However, people like U2 and Barbra Streisand are aimed at more of the older audience as they have been around for a long period of time. The ratio is 2:5, which you can tell that the younger people tend to download music more as they may be more aware of the technological things available to us and the older generation may not be aware of them so they go into the store and are more likely to buy the CD. We feel that our album 'In Time' would fit well in this album chart due to her being a new artist just like Ella Henderson, and her target audience is young adults and they tent to be the people who know the most about technology which will therefore know that the album is abailable to download and not just to buy in store.
