your confusing chickens and eggs. there are arts that got comoditized, and then there are arts that were created solely as commodities.
all new artists that signed up multi million contracts intended to solely produce commoditized art.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Go look up net labels or independent stuff on bandcamp, it's cheap and soulless acme shit.
I used to go to some Japanese net labels (they seem to be defunct now) like Bunkai Kei and Maletine Records, the best majority was cheap shit with only a few albums that really stood out.
The best albums I have listened to were from bands and musicians that made music for physical release.
people who really make arts for a living are street performers.

It's funny how you normies think your "pedestrian" rock music is so more in-depth and sophisticated, yet I'll show you something that is actually artistically and emotionally challenging and like the retards you are your brains shut down, you're literally too stupid to appreciate subtly and sound design.
It's like arguing with a boomer who thinks 1970s prog rock was the pinnacle of music. -

albums is just the way music industry try to package shit musics amongst a few listenable musics into a sellable package just like how wallstreet sold toxic subprime mortgages by blending them amongst other securities into sellable financial products and called them mortgaged backed securities. -

The record industry birthed the album how the military birthed video games, both mediums are independent of the industries that pioneered them.
Albums are important because it allows you to intimately experience the music exactly how the artist created it.
Concerts are just special occasion experiences for being able to enjoy the music directly from the artist.
The ideal situation for hearing music is in a pitch black room, decent sound system and an attentive listen start to finish. -

Back when you had to buy an album you cherished what you had more, now days people share and listen to albums like they do youtube links or meme images.
I stopped pirating recently because I wish to return to how I used to experience music,back in the early to mid 2010s I was a huge piratefag with over a hundred thousand songs, constantly listening to something new and only returning to my absolute favs, what I found was the special feeling of having an album was gone and my overall appreciation for the music was weaning.
Think of it like this, imagine it's 1999 and someone hands you a vhs they recorded of various music videos, you would cherish that tape and develop a special emotional attachment to those videos, in 2020 a teen with unlimited access to videos via youtube would not be able to experience that.
Less is more and scarcity makes things more special.
That's just you growing up you moron.
