The article doesn't say how much revenue growth happened in record sales/digital download sales. I took this as, while they make less revenue this way % wise, they actually earn more because the growth was so large.
Yes, I was agreeing with you. The graph is misleading as that shows sales of records as going up and generating more revenue for the artist, quite significantly.

They clearly screwed up the graph.
