Compact discs account for 80% of all music sales in Japan, which experts attribute to bonus material and an aging population that grew up with packaged music.
True but I'm not that old and I have a large CD collection because I always want to have a physical copy of the album in my hands and see no point in downloading off itunes when it's nearly the same price as a CD. The Japanese editions always get bonuses even from Western artists so /single so I can totally see why CDs still continue to reign supreme there.
