I'm thinking about those collaborations too. I don't know how many songs each did with Britney, but their contribution would definitely change the sound of the album. Imagine how 'In The Zone' would sound without Bloodshy and Avant for example!!

They only did 2 tracks IIRC, but they changed the entire vibe of the record!
I feel like 'FF' did re-introduce Britney in a way that 'Circus' failed to do. It showed that Britney can be current, take the trends and move them forward (i.e: dubstep breakdown) and it showed that she can still be a leader if she wants to. It's her first album to spawn 3 top 10 hits, so she's become a household name in the iTunes generation!
Still, Jive were about to call it a day, so they wanted to play it safe. I hope that RCA learned something from the now infamous Bionic massacre and won't be too controlling with Britney. They can advise her, they can even choose the singles if they want to, but when it comes to the studio sessions, no interventions please!
