Many artists have turned to recording and releasing albums, livestreams and various formats for projects. What are some of the most interesting things you've seen as a result of Covid?

There's been a number of bootleg recordings and compilations coming out as a result of the pandemic. Some artists took it easy while others decided to use the downtime for productive purposes. My favorite so far is Devin Townsend and his various Livestreams and bootleg collections.
Metallica's "72 Seasons" is a product of the pandemic.

Honestly, the touring ability for smaller bands is completely shot. So many shows cancelled, labels just don't have money for sending all but the biggest names.

Yes, and once the bigger names retire, that's when things begin to get tricky. Because of the smaller bands can't fill their shoes, the music industry will disappear. Part of the reason a lot of artists release their s**t independently and focus on selling merch.
