Can't speak for the industry at large, but streaming ruined music for me. I think it has to do with how different brains are wired.

Organization on song within album within artist within genre helped me remember and relate to it. I felt like I was in conversation with the artists.

On the other hand, streaming is snippets without context, like a book composed of the most popular paragraphs from 1000s of authors.

I guess for me, being able engage with my personal library or playlists was irreplaceable.
