Take 40 Australia is delighted to present Australia’s most streamed songs of 2007, celebrating the rise and rise of online music and the increasing popularity of streaming media with Aussie music lovers.

Take 40 Australia, the first and longest running music countdown in the country and now one of the country’s biggest online music destinations, reported over 12 million legal plays of new music and classic tracks from the Take 40 weekly chart and massive online library in 2007, indicating that Australian music lovers have well and truly embraced streaming music.

Whilst the ‘click and buy’ digital music download market tends to get all the headlines with iTunes and BigPond Music taking the lion’s share of dollars in 2007, the online streaming side of the business is challenging this user pays model.
