I never bought records, only CDs. My memory is small and low resolution cover art. Browsing album covers on spotify on anything bigger than a tablet will show the art at a bigger scale with better colors.

It's not the size. It's tangibility. Album art on Spotify is metadata. It's incidental. I don't notice it. On a CD it's part of the presentation.
