From a client point of view, I think I'd rather look at actual albums that I can touch and flip through.
Instead of making a new expensive album for each new portfolio of images, how about just making "albums" with the actual brands of albums you're offering to sell along with your photography service. Then, for all the other pictures you have for display, just have them printed up in coffee table books, like Blurb. That way you're not paying for expensive albums, just for cheap books to showcase pictures. Heck, I think hardcover blurb books are not that much more expensive than just having prints made at the drugstore, let alone buying an album to put them in.
I'd rather have a stack of albums and books for the customers to look through, instead of a photo slideshow, which they've seen countless times on photog's websites already, with the same old poses and special effects flashing on the screen.
If I were selling DVD montages, however, I wouldn't hesitate to show them those as well.
