I never knew that singles sold so tiny. I don't understand why did anyone bother with them at all.

  Singles were pressed for radio stations, back in the day. May as well sell 'em if you're already pressing them. Sidenote: this is where the term 'B-side' came from. The A-side of the single had the song the music label wanted to promote, the B-side had some other song that most stations didn't play.

    Oh! An interesting consideration! I didn't realize song couldn't get on air unless it was pressed!
