Thinking back on all the music I've bought over the last couple years, I really haven't bought that many cds, but I'm always buying individual songs. I like the idea of creating mixes and making my own cover art for them. The amount of time that goes into making cover art by hand (I know this from personal experience now) makes me not want to make my own very often, but if I could send off my design to the Awesome Hypothetical Machine to do the work for me, I wouldn't even hesitate.

I could imagine this integrating nicely with a website like Mux Tape so that people could design their own cover art, not just for CDs but also for downloads. Nice idea.

However, this belief is not entirely universal. [...] [...] I’ve always blamed the CD, which offers scant space for cover art: less than one-fifth the whole square foot you got with an LP jacket.
