They were so cumbersome and expensive (in both equipment & tape costs) that it would have been cheaper just to go out and buy the album. Also, I can't imagine pirating being too much of an issue (once again, the expense of bootlegging vinyl) and most record companies didn't think their records would be selling into the next year, never mind 50 years on.
