Artwork for music a dying art?

I was just going through some old CDs thinking that with the advent of mp3, artwork for music is becoming a thing of the past. I remember my older brother lamenting the days of LPs when CD started to take over.

So anyways what's your favorite album art? I have a fond memory of my brothers Led Zeppelin covers. I don't know who did the art but they were really creative.

edit: thx 4 spell check

Actually, album art is the only thing keeping most people buying CDs, so I suspect that artwork for music will continue

David Byrne wrote a nice piece about this subject. He argues that we should be more excited for the multimedia experience that digital allows us, rather than mourn the loss of the album sleeve.
