Album Art

I totally judge an album by it's cover, but for me, it's less that I choose albums that have good album art, and more that the albums I choose have good album art. Also, I find that some music I don't particularly like still has some great album art and that marketing in that area has created something really competitive and really good for the industry. Unfortunately with music moving to the digital era, artwork has changed, and it's no longer this physical thing that you can collect. The same can be said about digital books and vinyl too. To me it's a little sad, but I'm certain that physical album art will always have a following, even if it's a cult following, and that it will still continue to exist and evolve with changing music technology.
