Our dropoff happened several years ago. I attribute it to the maturation of
streaming services like Spotify and Netflix and our investment in the
additional bandwidth to support streaming vs download-and-play.

We've seen a dramatic decrease in Internet Copyright Infringement

Has anyone else seen a similar drop in their environments? I suppose one
possible theory is the abundance of music download services has increased.
Just curious about this....

Thanks.
