Since when are pure sales a "fad?" Pure sales have always been the standard. It wasn't until hacks like Rihanna and Ariana showed up and couldn't compel music fans in bulk to buy their albums, yet oddly managed to still linger, that streaming became used as something to cover their lagging performances. Streaming is a joke. It's remedial sales for artists who put out a half catchy tune that the public knows better than to take too seriously.
