The sad death of liner note credits

An all too relevant article for us:
[themusicnetwork.com] https://themusicnetwork.com/death-of-liner-note-credits/
"It's band members, songwriters, engineers, producers, studios, string arrangers, backing vocalists – all these artists are being erased. As technology has progressed, and music has moved into the digital realm, album credits have completely disappeared.
Finding out who played the drums on a particular song shouldn't take detective work. You should be able to pick up an album cover, flip it open and read all about it."
I wonder if this mentioned further down is of any use to us:
"Jaxsta is an Australian music tech company aiming to plug this gap. Their ad-supported model aims to compile the world's largest database of album credits."

I checked jaxsta.com for an artist with three releases. They've got three separate artists.

I have had this discussion a few times recently with people, I miss the days of getting a new album putting it on the turntable (or yes cassettes and Cds too) and pulling the liner notes out and reading everything!
Doesn't help research much either.
