MeltingCORE: I don't know about snow flake... It's a Comiket item, so it may not be very easy to get. It was sold online
here in the beginning of March, but I think that was just for people living in Japan; I got my copy of 5TEARS vol. 2 from the same sale, but I had to use a middleman service and everything. At the moment, your best bet for getting it are probably auction sites - I took a quick look and it was available in a couple of places. However, it might pop up somewhere later, like the original 5TEARS did - it appeared out of nowhere on CDJapan last July.

axmish: If you're still looking for scans of MELL's best album - I got them when I downloaded the album
here. There's a lot of text and and not many pictures, so enjoy reading.
There's also a message from MELL herself:
http://ive.mu/mell/message.html
I think she mentions something about the reasons for leaving I've and an illness does come up. That's pretty much all I know about the contents though, I haven't seen a translation and can't read enough Japanese to get pretty much anything out of it.
In other news, I finally listened to the MELL best album and the new tracks are indeed good! In The Name Of Love was unexpected, but I really enjoyed it and EMPTY was some of the best stuff C.G Mix has made in a good while. Sora yori Chikai Yume's new version was a nice update to the original, though nothing groundbreaking.
