promotion yes, i can see that.

how is packaging any different than for any of their solo albums? and is distribution that much larger than for a SN solo album?

Lindsey solo distribution is definitely not huge (although i'm not sure about the economies of scale - if he solo covers as many stores as FM but just smaller number of copies)... but he did put out his last few albums and DVDs as hard copies - CD, DVD, blu-ray, as well as vinyl...

what else? to me it sounds like people are always talking about a year of studio time being the expensive part, and that part should definitely be a moot point, no? no need for a year, and no need to pay for studio time.
