The main aim of this paper is to describe differences in consumer behaviour of representatives of Polish Generations X and Y in music industry. Despite growing market, digitalization of everyday life as well as music industry and large number of researches on online music piracy – there is still lack of research and publications on Polish consumers in music industry.
