You can't blame file sharing. The file sharing issue is nowhere near as prominent in the days of streaming. Most people have Spotify, or Apple music etc, so the market for illegal downloads in minimal now. The people that were so excited about the album release are the ones that downloaded it when it leaked, and they are mostly the ones that would have had it pre-ordered anyway.

You also talk as if file sharing only effect Bon Jovi, but every artist has the same issue...pretty much every album released this week will have leaked at day or two before at least.
