Following on from our coverage of the financial difficulties faced by musicians and venues in 2024, we want to know about your music spending habits.

What do you spend on music – records, streaming, tickets, merch, anything else – in a typical month? Has that increased or decreased over time? What motivates you to splash out on music?

Otherwise, what’s prompted you to cut back? Is it affordable to be a music fan in 2024? If you’re a parent to young music fans, what are they spending on music? We welcome as much detail as you’re happy to share – from broad strokes to a breakdown of the numbers.
