BTS’ BIG DIGITAL SALES: For the second year in a row, BTS has the year’s top-selling digital song in the U.S., as “Butter” rounds out 2021 with 1.89 million downloads sold. In 2020, the group’s “Dynamite” was the top seller, with 1.26 million sold. 2021 marks the third straight year in which only one song sold at least 1 million downloads, as digital track sales continue to erode on a yearly basis.
2021 marked the ninth consecutive year digital track sales declined, as they fell 13.2% to 202.92 million (down from 233.85 million in 2020).
