>I guess my preference would be to have the artwork of the album cover as expressive >as needed and then have track info. credits etc. on the disc itself. Much cleaner >this way. nooo! artists, don't listen to him. :) albums with the tracklisting on the disc itself (and nowhere else) have always infuriated me; it really disrupts the listening experience when you have to take out the disc to find out what that wonderful (or horrible) track was called. bdp's bytes is a case in point; i STILL don't know the name of most of the tracks on there, thanks to that smudgy crap over the titles on the back. now that those transparent backs on cd cases (you know, the thing that actually holds the disc in there) are becoming more common, people could start putting the tracks under there .. that way it won't be too in the way. or they can always go like reload and write a little story for their songs.. noah np: ironically enough, cichlisuite .. now that is a functional cover. the track titles look nice up there.
