I don't have access to Ayu videos in full, so there's still restrictions in play here.
Japan doesn't really have a radio culture either, so streaming probably won't take off.
You can literally rent CDs for 1 dollar, not to mention buy them for dirt cheap at book off.
Sales, in terms of physical releases, still sees Japan at or near the top. If Oricon properly counted digital sales as well, I doubt artists would pale that much in comparison to western countries.
It takes Japan like 10 years to finally start adapting to changes. I do think that eventually sales will be counted...
