People are transitioning to new ways of listening to music. As shelven said, I listen to everything through streaming now., that doesn't mean I 'respect artists less now', it means I have transitioned to a new way of listening to music.
Like pull up evidence that points to declining sales = less respect for the artists.
Even a Flo Rida hit in 2016 sells less than a Flo Rida hit in 2009. Are you suggesting Flo Rida has suddenly loss the respect of millions?
I respectfully but entirely disagree with you. And you know what? That's fine

People need to start buying songs again. If you stan for an artist, buy their music.
When did Never Forget You get discounted? Shawn Mendes is falling hard, and so are all of the other new songs. And what's with the sudden rise of Unsteady, did that movie come out?
