Well i think it could have been better situation if artsits n labels could have adopted accordingly, Look at it now, music is almost free now, no one wants to pay for a music, But if u see people do pay for concerts, here in india musician hardly mint money ,most of  thier earnings are from live shows.

I still have hopes, m sure artists around the world will figure a way out, Intresting case study here in india, the standup comics made decent money in covid lockdown times by hosting thier live paid sessions on YT n IG.

I think it's like that world over for sure. Concerts and physicals is where artists make money. Downloading and streaming changed the industry forever.
