To which Azoff and Mick might reply, "As the classic Fleetwood Mac song goes, 'don't dream it's over'!"

ABBA always had a core dynamic for creating albums that was far more straight-forward and stable and than what Rumours FM has ever had.

Benny happily comes up with some music.
Bjorn happily comes up with some lyrics for it.
Agnetha and Frida happily need only come into the studio to lay vocals.
Benny, Bjorn and the engineers have fun perfecting the production in the studio.

Touring aside, ABBA might have happily persisted in making studio records post-divorces like FM if the boys had not wanted to focus on other pursuits and Agnetha had not been been driven to reclusiveness by excessive fan attention.
