If artists as a whole would make more memorable albums, they may have a chance of selling the whole thing. This is nothing new... I grew up purchasing 45s and cassette singles. For one, I didn't always have the money to buy the whole album. Second, I usually didn't want the whole thing anyway. It's simple... make an album like "The Wall" of "Sgt. Peppers" and we will buy it all... keep giving us 1 or 2 singles and 10 crap songs and we won't. It really is that simple.
