personally i buy only japanese press because i want somethng " authentic. ayu is japanese so i want my obi and my tracklist to be in japanese + korean press have lower quality than japanese press. sometimes the color are a bit "off"/ pr paper is slimmer or not as shiny or sometimes its the case that drive me crazy , but since they are half the price . you get what you pay for

but if i have to rank i would say
1- japanese press
2 -taiwanese press
3- korean press
3-hk press
4-bootleg ( those are the worse ! )

my advice if you are buying korean press because of the price , you can obtain japanese very easily for the same sometimes even cheapper than the korean press . second hand can be great especially if only open once or in mint condition they are as good as new for half the price . it might be a better deal than korean press.

oh and as someone mention there is the region code pb too . i can read only 1 and 2 so thats an other reason for me to buy japanese press .

yes yes the cd fall of easily , i had only 1 korean press and i got so tired of the cd falling off i gave my cd to a friend with a new case because korean case ARE crappy .
