I suppose that's a good point. Maybe you're more of a diligent digger than I am. I usually only go buy music after I've heard songs that I like. I probably miss out on a bunch of stuff this way.
My listening is usually dictated by people on these boards. Sometimes it works out, other times it doesn't. So while appealing cover art is appreciated and is a nice bonus, it doesn't really factor in my typical music purchase. Although, I can see how cover art can help if you're semi-randomly scouring music stores.
Regardless, at this point you're more than likely familiar with the album so why complain if you've already listened to it? Are you worried that it won't get as much exposure because others will pass it over because of the lame album art?
