1. That graph shows adjusted revenues lower than the 90s and early 2000s and even one or two years in the 70s.
2. It’s not a chart of what artists take home, but rather raw top line revenue, and it seems clear from all available evidence that the economics of Spotify et al are significantly worse for artists than they were with CDs. People have accepted this because it seemed better than piracy where revenue is zero.
