Exactly, and while I personally think that method produced some of the best music that's just my own preference. The thing is that now an artist can spend as long or as short a time as they want to in order to perfect and record what they want. That most will take the short-cut of releasing something half-baked or else lack the talent to produce something really worth listening to hardly detracts from the fact that someone somewhere will produce something utterly brilliant that otherwise might never have seen the light of day. In that sense, the real challenge is finding a way of negotiating through the avalanche of crap in order to get to the real gems.
