Honestly, this seems beneficial to the musicians too. No longer worry about months/years of work going into an album that flops.

Be more iterative, experimental, and user driven by releasing an album's worth of content over the course of a few years. Seems like this reduces the risk for musicians publishing music that doesn't have an audience.

I prefer the artists who put thought into creating a cohesive whole that requires more than a quick 3-minute track to tell.

Getting caught up in a "rapid release cycle" means a race to the lowest common denominator in search of popularity.
