Yes, but "albums" aren't the same as categories. And if you compare that to a "social media" aspect as you've done before. That's the same across the board. Which makes this particular point moot. If I have a Christina Hendricks Album on my Facebook, that doesn't negate someone else from having one.
I'm okay with having a streaming album that has no categorizing but I do not promote that albums be combined. This has been a thing since 3.x and is not something I would promote. You want a single place for specific content, make a category. Duplicate albums will happen based on user submission.
