There are plenty of progressive Rock and Metal albums that are also supposed to be listened to as a whole.

And people have been playing Ode To Joy on its own long before there were recordings - single instrument renditions of symphonic pieces exist for a reason.

I agree. It's just easier to split up nowadays.

I'm glad there is still long form music being made both inside and outside the classical world. I really appreciate when music builds a full world of it's own.
