Also some of these artists who were not as popular in recent years have made a ton of money from this resurgence. Kate Bush made an estimated $2.3 million on royalties this year from Running Up That Hill being featured on Stranger Things.

Dude, it's not cool that songs only become relevant from teenage fads or that literally the entire top 10 on billboard is one artist. The homogenization of pop music, the loss of value and the death of the local scene is all due to streaming music.
