Physical sales had already started dropping in the 2000s. By the mid 2010s, all physical formats were well under half the market share of digital and streaming, and it was only the beginning.We might forget, though, that until later in the decade, physical sales were still a force. Despite the 2000s being seen as the turning point from physical to digital, it’s really the 2010s where the changeover happened. As it did, the definition of what an album is started to change as well, with packaging and sequence becoming far less important than singles and whatever would get music to sell online.What were your favorite albums of the first half of the 2010s? Do you think albums still had cultural influence? Discuss dammit!BONUS MxTRA VIDEO: How the physical/digital crossover left musicians behind~~~*intro music credit: REC - "Wake Up High"*mid roll music credit: The Drop - "Outerloper" Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
