That's 6 million units and 900 million USD more than CDs, which generated just 537 million USD in sales.Despite the higher price, vinyl has shown steady growth in popularity for 17 years.

Experts note that physical collections of audio recordings are once again becoming a cultural trend, especially among audiophiles and music lovers nostalgic for the past.

8.Researchers from the University of Lyon conducted a comparative analysis of seven languages based on pronunciation speed.It turned out that the leader is Japanese, followed by Spanish, French, Italian, English, German and Chinese.
