I held out on purchasing MP3s for a long time because of this very thing. The packaging was important to me--the art, the lyrics, and, in some cases, the color of vinyl. That said, I've kinda gotten over that, and happily purchase MP3s. I don't blame Steve Jobs for that transition, though. Also, comparing old timey farm work (which, btw, still happens today) to purchasing actual albums is a bit overstated, methinks.
