Ayu's sales + YesAsia = ???
 

Ok.. I order a lot of CD's from YesAsia.. I was curious though, does it ACTUALLY support the artist if you buy from them and CD Japan, etc? .. =_=;; *walks away stupidly*

Yes. yesasia and cdjapan are just like any record store in Japan.

Well...If it didn't...then they wouldn't ever be supported. It's a store, just like actually stores in Japan (except online). If you didn't buy the CDs. YesAsia and CD Japan supply the CDs and make a profit and when we buy CDs the artists make a profit and are supported too. ^^

Only Japan version CDs count by the way.

I thought OS versions counted too, they just got less for them.

Oricon doesn't count OS Ver towards sales, and from what I've heard, all profits from OS Versions goes towards the record companies.

they get the stuff from the shops, and suppliers

they better support the artists... some things are kinda expensive >.<

Hmmmmmmmm....... I see.. thanks :) .. Better get off my butt and buy the expensive Japan Versions.. +___+ Since I'm working :D

I always kind of wondered how it factored in as well! Haha!
