I assume you are a very young person who is just starting to develop your tastes in music.
Incorrect assumption.

You do realize that not all great music comes in 35-50 minute chunks, right?
This is true. The best stuff comes in 50-80 minute chunks ;)

So you would never listen to a single Bach Cantata or Mozart Sonata because it's not part of an album?
I would not listen to those things because I'm not a fan of that type of music. But if i were, I would listen to them within the context of the album they were released on.

I assume you don't go to clubs because generally DJ's play single cuts strung together instead of entire albums.
I don't like club DJs that play collections of top 40 singles, no. But I very much enjoy album-length DJ sets of electronic music where the singles are placed in the context of a musical journey of the DJ's construction. I'd wager that 90% of electronic dance music is released with this in mind -- there is no album context until it is created by the DJ.

I predict, without fear, that in a very few years you will be embarrassed by how strident you were back in 2008. I hope you are lucky enough to continue to grow in your love of music beyond the purely pretentious stage.
Well, my pretensions have survived 25+ years so far so they're probably fairly well ingrained. I could argue that my love of music is precisely what has led me to discovering the exact format for maximum enjoyment.

This doesn't mean I won't enjoy a single if I hear in on the radio or in another context. It just means I won't collect it or listen to it privately.

It's nice to know I'm not the only one that steadfastly refuses to listen to anything but albums (with the exception of DJ Mixsets, which are really just arbitrarily long albums comprised of other people's music). I as well start at track one, and don't stop until I hit track end, even to the point of picking up midway through an album when I move from audio device to audio device. If I really like one track, then it's the reward for taking another journey through the album.

I'm so album-centric that if an artist can't produce a quality album (eg. I like one song but not the other 10) then the whole thing ends up in the Trash. You will not find a single single in my entire collection anyway. Having an albumless track dropped in the middle of my iTunes collection is an affront, mocking me with it's lack of context.

I am aware that this makes me odd.

AnyDVD apparently defeats BD+

Seemed really great, until it demanded a US billing address right before checkout. Would have been nice if they'd been more upfront about that requirement.
