Imploded or transformed?

Music consumption hasn't gone down. Consumption of physical media that I can't slip in my pocket has.

Spending on music is vastly down.

The RIAA publishes numbers - https://www.riaa.com/u-s-sales-database/

Inflation adjusted we are down by over half from the peak.

Subscription revenue is less that 30% of peak CD revenue.
