Obviously touring and gigs is not going to be happening for some time in most countries, if not all. Perhaps we'll get a deluge of new albums later in the year as bands use this downtime to write and record their next album earlier than they might have in some cases. The lockdown that's just been announced in the UK tonight even makes it difficult for bands to get together to rehearse and record though. What restrictions are there in your country in this respect?

Albums already recorded though, will bands hold back on the release date when they can tour on the back of it or still go ahead? Bandcamp and the like is obviously not a problem but is delivery likely to be a problem getting hard copies in the coming weeks? Should we even be ordering them leaving the delivery services to focus on essential items?

I think the industry will do its best to carry on, because people are going to need their entertainment more than ever right now. Not as much as food and essentials obviously, but it will help people get through the boredom and keep from going stir crazy and risk breaking quarantine unnecessarily. But groups certainly aren't going to be able to get together to record albums. I imagine that a lot of writing will be done! Same for movie and TV scripts. 

Hadn't occured to me yet about getting them pressed. perhaps it might be still possible in some countries.

I was just thinking the other day that I might have seen Alice Cooper's last gig for quite some time. The show I saw was the end of the first leg of a tour, and was scheduled to carry on later in the year.

International tours might be off for quite some time, but domestic ones might pick up again a bit sooner. This will definitely benefit online music services like Spotify and Bandcamp, and I really hope that artists do see something out of it.

I don't think so. They might not be many albums released on CD/Vinyl over the next few months but lots of people still prefer a hard copy, me included. I'll wait rather than buy a download.
