In this age of online music, we must save the ambum from extinction:
-Replace printed album art and liner notes with persistent web pages that are worth visiting. The might provide the desired conceptual link among an album's tracks.
-Encourage people to burn their online albums onto CD as a whole. Make this easy somehow. Maybe sell a few single tracks but sell the rest of the album as a compressed disk image. This worked in radio.
-Stream whole albums.
-Let artists figure out musical ways to link tracks into an album--ie let albums evolve to the point where they organize themselves.
-Freeze time.
There are some Ideas, Chuck.
