I'm finally making peace with the brave new digital music world and starting to forgo CDs, but the one thing I really do miss is liner notes. Sure, you might be able to find some info online, but usually not track-by-track personnel and other liner note staples, pictures, thank yous, etc.
Why don't liners either come as a download with an album, or get treated like album cover art, accessable from a centralized database when you play an album in a media program? Would it be so hard?

Dude, i just need something with a gatefold to seperate the seeds from the buds. This digital age is bumming me out.

Some do- I know that the newest Ryan Adams album came with a "digital booklet" that opens with Adobe Reader. It just hasn't caught on with everyone yet, which is too bad because it's something that I enjoy.

Isn't this basically what a bands Myspace page, band blogs and tour diary's are for these days?

Buying music digitally is good for people who aren't really into music. People who don't care about lyric books, etc. These people suck.

Pics and thank yous, maybe, but not track-by-track personnel (who does backing vocals on that one song? which band members wrote each song?)
