^^^ Took the words right out of MY mouth (poor sifow ;~; )
I really do think people are spoiled by high sales, and I will NEVER understand why only Japanese music lovers put such a high emphasis on it. Nobody I know here in a America gives a **** about sales unless it's REALLY BAD -- like a
total flop of less than a thousand, haha. Why, then, do people who love Japanese music OBSESS over how much a damn single or album sells? Who the hell cares, really? It's not like sales are any indication of talent, artistic integrity, or worth (let's all just take a good look at who dominates the charts time and again [coughboygroupscough] and REALLLY ask ourselves whether they're
artists or just
products with pretty voices [and faces~]).
I don't know why I'm wasting the time to post this, though, considering this person's probably a troll, copypasta'd this post from somewhere else, and is really obviously flamebaiting us all @_@
