Maybe the concern is that the stream lets people decide whether or not to buy it. The traditional business model involves the album being a surprise - you've bought it whether you ultimately like all the songs or not... no free evaluation (well except for the single(s) and those record stores that let you give it a listen)
And I'll admit that the streaming of WC sort of spoiled the moment of getting the CD and giving it that first real listen while leafing through the lyric booklet.
