Looks like music album sales are down in the double digits and singles are up. How many songs on an album do most people like? Is it three or four of the 17 songs?
My theory as a kid was that artists knew they had several songs that were good and just filled the rest of the album with sort of rushed material. They later create best-of albums to pump sales.
With the advent of on-line downloads, people are just downloading the songs they like (no surprise) and foregoing the album ($12-$20) and spending $1 for the song/s they like. The sales support this.
So, if you're a music artist what do you do? Wait longer until you have more good singles to create an album?
Life goes by so fast...need to take a few seconds to write down and remember experiences that make me the person I am.
