    @safe you got any info on the virus' impact for music business. Info seems all over the place/not consistent. Would love to see how vitality has been impacted. Could be thread idea

    Virus has significantly stunted growth

    For a significant period streams and sales and radio were all far lower - After Hours for example likely would’ve sold closer to 600k

    Then obviously touring is a huge revenue source

    I’ll have a proper hunt though and see if there’s some stuff to turn into a thread
