I think the "listen to the album as it was intended" is easy to relate to and I definitely agree, though people like to skip tracks after 20 seconds and jump around just like people want to watch movies on 2x or 4x speed to get through it faster. There's definitely a shift in the old mentality of "lets take time and really absorb this" with the newer "consume, consume, consume" mentality, but in terms of keeping your music as available as possible I think it's a no brainer. I don't use Spotify myself as I consider it essentially pirating in terms of how much the artist get out of it, so I just prefer to buy the stuff. However, considering how popular Spotify is, it's definitely smarter to bite the bullet than to stay out in the cold. I'm sure for every 4 people who look SW up on Spotify and think his music sucks, there's at least 1 guy who really likes it and sinks money into merchandising or physical copies, and ultimately that's probably worth it for him.
