Album Re Releases

It really annoys me when an artist re-releases their album with like one or two more songs on it. There really is no point in doing so. It's like a giant slap in the face to the fans of that artist. If I buy an album for like 12 bucks, why would I buy a re-release of that album for 15? I'm basically buying most of the songs again for no reason. The only reason people would do this is for the money. They must not care about their fans at all. Take Katy Perry for example. She puts out an album in 2010, then she re-releases that EXACT SAME album in 2012 with 3 more songs on it, and a few remixes. Her fans do not deserve that. Her fans deserve a separate album, or at least an EP of those three songs. In two years, all she had to show her fans were three songs.

why buy an album in the first place? use spotify or something and then support the artist with a concert ticket or merch.
albums are mostly profit for the record label, not the artist.
