This sounds a lot like a 'things aren't as valued or well done as they were in my day' statement, imo.

12" vinyl art is long gone. Album covers never had the same effect on CD, but they were still there. Now the album as a physical thing is dying, and the artwork goes with it.

Only a matter of time before Zep get arrested, I expect.

There's been a massive resurgence. Cover art may be less universally acknowledged and appreciated due to technology, but it's by no means dying out.

Quick off the head example, The Strokes - Is This It. One of the most iconic albums and covers of the last decade and was most widely bought on CD.
