Taylor Swift was responsible for 22% of albums sold in the US in the last seven days. The sales of her "1989" exceeds the combined sales of albums at No 2 to No 107 in Billboard chart, according to the number crunchers at [The Guardian](http://www.theguardian.com/music/2014/nov/06/taylor-swift-responsible-22-per-cent-sold-us-1989?ref=hypebot.com).

But as impressive as those numbers are, particularly given the steady decline in overall music sales, the story that could really shape the near future of the music industry and music consumption is her label's decision to pull all her music off of Spotify.
