avex may release region-free blurays though, I'm not sure.

For some reason I was convinced that Ayu's blu-ray releases were all region-free but according to my searching, they're all in Region A. So even if I had a Blu-ray player, I wouldn't be able to play the Ayu Blu-rays I own
... Well, at least I can play all her DVDs without problem since Japan and Sweden have the same DVD region.
I do hate this region-thing though, in the age of globalization and the Internet it feels like it should be a relic of the past. I don't begrudge the media industry for finding new ways to make money when they're losing so much due to illegal copying/downloading of media, but it feels sour when it's at the cost of the paying consumer who wants to enjoy international media.
And this little rant is going a bit off-topic so I'll just say: Terminal has been my groove for the last few days, I love it and I hope to be able to buy the album when I (supposing something doesn't go wrong) get money on Thursday.
