why are most new releases going to four sides?


I know a number of new albums are being cut with cd in mind (50+ minutes) and with the longer length are being put on four sides of vinyl

personally some of these could easily squeeze onto 2 sides and it would be nice to hear 20+ minutes at a time instead of 2 songs per side

perhaps the expanded grooves have more fidelity, and certainly there is less inner groove distortion, but wouldn't it be nice to hear a whole side in one sitting?

Nsgarch - I like your 3 side ideas. Then we could have one blank side to test antiskating on!
