So yeah its digital if you want all the material, but if your a collector of product its still worthwhile, no one says come round and see my 25,000 mp3's do they...??

some singles on amazon are print-on-demand cd-r's (examples from 'bt')
that come with artwork also.
i would think that would be an easy alternative for bands to provide
both options for fans. again the question would be if it is worth getting
those when they would never really go out of print or would always
be accessible. much like digital WAV files for the mixes of the latest
underworld singles.
