Well, I think it started from the fact that after Best First Things, not that long after she released Best Second Session, though I don't really see that as a best album, since its all new material. They are also her highest selling albums. Then you have Bounce & Lovers, Third Universe (which was kinda useless imo) and Out Works Best. That's 5 best albums in a twelve year career. Third Universe was in 2010, so its been two years. That could be a long time or a short time, depending on your opinion.

Personally, the only Best album that annoyed me was Third Universe, as I feel they released it for the sake of releasing a best album during her 10th year, and it didn't have much desirable content if you had been buying previous albums. I really liked the releases of Bounce & Lovers and Second Session because they had new stuff, so I do look forward to what a summer Best could bring.


EDIT: Does anyone know if the DVD version of Live Tour 2005: First Things Deluxe Edition has any extra content over the version on Best Second Session?
