Adele is a different story
Her demographic is so versatile. And most of her buyers actually buy CDs.

The people who benefited most from album sales were from the 90s and early 00s.
That means Michael Jackson was that ASTRONOMICAL during the Thriller peak, if that's the case proportionally.

I agree music is coming back to what it was in the 50's-70's. 80-00's was the boom of albums in general, now we are seeing the end curve of that.

This. It seems times repeat itself every 20 yrs hopefully something new comes along so artist can get the sales back up.

Worldwide sales are only down 35-40% since 2000. It's US sales that have really collapsed - down 60-65%.
