Greatest Hits Packages (Off Topic)

Where do greatest hits packages fit in the scheme of album review?

The concept of albums Vs. greatest hits seems weird. An album is put together in a certain scheme, to convey a certain feel. Pulling indiviual tracks from various albums onto one ruins the artistic energy that an album is meant to convey.

I only ask because I wanted to discuss the Better Than Ezra greatest hits package, but I feel that would be like shooting ducks in a barrel.

What do you think?
