With all these new ways of digital publishing, I’m wondering for years why music artists still release entire albums. I would have imagined that most bands simply publish a new song whenever it’s good to go. But no, at least in my bubble, everybody still collects a bunch of new songs before throwing them as a collection into the crowd. I never used any of these streaming services, though, so maybe I’m just completely uninformed.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org maybe they go after the impact. A single? Meh. An album? “Woah! These guy(s)/gal(s) are busy!” Also more possibilities for people liking at least one song. Anyway, that’s my theory, and I am sticking to it! :-P
