Lots of TayTay fans don't even own record players, but they buy her vinyl to hang on their walls as collectibles.
The variants are crucial to that first week sales push.
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

i think i said this earlier but this doesnt bother me at all. Some people like to collect shit, and if you don’t this is entirely skippable. no new music or mixes attached to the varients
see if someone wants to complain about the cost of things that are core to fandom (cost of album, ticket prices (though thats more complicated) etc that makes sense. If pearl jam was in any way incentivizing people who would not otherwise be looking to buy something (each variant comes with a bonus song you cant hear otherwise) I get it. But this is a superfluous item whose only purpose is to bring joy to collectors and maybe boost turnout at record stores. So fuck those people because…reasons?
Does anyone think everyone is getting a new car due to all the record variants they are releasing?
People actively look for reasons to get upset about something they ostensibly care about? that can’t be healthy?
and the first egregious example of this in pj history is no code, where in a pre internet age you had to buy multiple copies of an album if you wanted to see the full liner notes
