i agree, but i think they work in concert with each other. i like reading the credits before/as/after i listen to an album, and i don't have to wait until someone transcribes and uploads the information online and hope it's accurate. some albums never get properly documented online. liner notes are a good thing, but it's also nice to read interviews and have online databases where you can click around for related info.
