In order these are:
1. Physical sales - in the US
2. Digital sales - from US stores (Apple music, etc)
Especially for Holos, these are almost unattainable since the company is based in Japan.
3. Streaming sites "equivalent downloads" - Spotify, Tidal, Deezer.. is iTunes still a thing?
4. Video streaming sites - YT, tiktok
It's the 3rd one that's most useful, since as far as we know, Spotify is valued higher that other streaming sites because of the higher payout. It also seems to counts international viewers the same.
If you want to Make it as a musician, try for the Spotify audience, just use Youtube to funnel people there.
