Why are long songs "Album Only" on iTunes, Amazon, etc?

What purpose does the "Album Only" function serve?

Well especially with older albums like 2112 by Rush for example, the song 2112 literally took up half the album. Apple/Amazon doesn't like the fact that you just bought essentially half an album for 99c. Therefore you can only get the song with the whole album. Misc. legal crap might have something to do with it as well.
