Incorrect. Just the opposite. Unlike other industries, the streams are still available and people have more time to listen.

Case in point: The Weeknd is having a fantastic first week of his new thing; 425,000 or so in total; of that number plenty of streaming.

"According to Alpha Data, an analytics provider, streams in the US dropped some 7.6% during the week of March 13 to March 19 — the week when many Americans first self-quarantined and other non-essential outlets business closed across the country.

A similar slump was also seen in album sales and digital song sales. Physical album sales dropped by a staggering 27.6%, digital album sales fell by 12.4%, and digital song sales plummeted by 10.7%."

According to TODAY's information: The Weeknd's new album passed ONE BILLION STREAMS in its first week.
