I don't think the album is dead, but it seems like they've reverted to the idea there was in the early 60s, namely that an album should have 2 or 3 good songs/singles and the rest could be fillers.
I personally think that doesn't really help matters.

No. Music has always been released in some kind of assembly, for instance all Beethoven's symphonies. And I think it's still easier and more progressive to record and produce a collection of songs than to write down all the notes. 
People with shortening attention spans could still listen to one song and continue later with an other one of that record.

The image of music culture in general has been damaged and the artistic credibility of music has been vulgarized, so that intelligent people get put off. Today everything gets labeled art, even Miley Cirus, the Kardashians and TV-Commercials. So in a society where bad taste has become artistically credible, real art is dissapearing .
But there will always be a group of people that will make their work through all the mainstream and they will listen to records and not only to the singles.
Music will become free to anyone. But it also will become free of restrictions.

In large part yes, but albums are not going anywhere either. In today's pop market it is more important to have quality singles more so than a great album.

Albums are very important in other genres of music. For example, musical theater. Musical theater has always been the the original concept albums. Each track leads you somewhere and tells a story, which makes the album essential to many theatrical pieces. In the case of theater... some songs won't even make sense when taken out of the context of the album.

What a kind comment is that.

No, I still would listen to an album the entire way through.

There will always be a spot for the album. There will always be artists who want to flex their creative muscles by creating wide expanses of music. Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp A Butterfly came out only last year, kind of proving that the album is not dead. Actually, I would say that rap is where the album is where the idea of the album still lives.

However, pop stars have reverted back to the 2-3 good songs on an album, even though they've mostly been that way for some time.

In my opinion, the album has always been the domain of counter culture and the artistically inclined, which is why it works well for rap and rock. Until rock is "popular" again, we won't be seeing too many high profile albums. But there will always be the album.

EVERYTHING EVERYTHING: “People keep making albums, and people keep saying this is the end. Some people thought when they first became popular that that was a bad thing for pop music as well, because with singles there was a kind of honesty with the essence of the art form in a 45”, as it’s all about individual songs. We don’t know, if the album does continue to decline, if that’s necessarily a bad thing for music. We really like the format and will still, for the foreseeable future, continue to make music in that way.”
For Everything Everything , the ‘album’ isn’t about the record it produces, all shiny and new. It’s actually the process that goes into creating the thing as a whole. The length of that thing, or whether it’s even called an album, is actually beside the point. Really the only difference is how technology allows people to digest and make this music, not the music itself.

God, cassettes...I remember having this little device that could play cassettes when I was a kid. It was red, white, blue and yellow. Have no idea why I had cassettes as CDs had been around for quite a few years already.

Funny how most children nowadays won't know cassettes or videos.
