Digital downloads made up the majority of music sales at the start of the decade. In 2011, singles sales hit an all-time high, a record that was then surpassed in 2012. From July 2014, as download sales began to decline, [3] audio streaming began to be counted at a rate of 100 streams equivalent to a sale, later increased to 150 streams, [4] and later still to 300 streams once a song had spent a certain time on the charts and its consumption had declined. [5]

The following singles were all number one in the United Kingdom during the 2010s. [6] [7]

Million-selling and Platinum records

Since April 1973, the British Phonographic Industry has been classifying singles by the number of units shipped or by sales. The highest threshold is "Platinum record" and is currently awarded to singles that have shipped or sold over 600,000 units. [16] [17] [lower-alpha 4] From July 2014, BPI certifications (along with the Official Singles Chart) include audio streaming at 100 streams equal to one unit; these are referred to as 'combined sales' or 'chart sales'. So for example, "All of Me" by John Legend was certified double Platinum (1,200,000 combined sales) in October 2014 and became a million-seller in January 2015. [19]
