Keeping the aspect ratio of any images in the picture is important I believe and many times there is a background on the image that it doesn't hurt to crop a bit. I can see this a good solution in some cases. It all depends on the cover itself. Some covers are all text and not preserving the aspect ratio might the right thing to do for those covers. It is nice to have a choice. After all TV shows and movies chop the image all the time but changing the aspect ratio makes things fat or way to skinny.
