I'm glad to see so many great artiststs doing well, although 2003 definitely wasn't the best year for new material. I think things started to pick up this year, though, and 2005 is going to be a lot better. I love Ayu, BoA, DAI, and ELT, and the fact that one does better than the other says nothing about their individual music. It just means one is more mainstream-popular than the other; and likewise that doesn't say anything good or bad about either artist. These are just statistics, nothing to get upset about.
FancySN: I'm really curious about that as well. I bet those numbers would whack us upside the head, considering American stuff is sold with success in Japan, but Japanese stuff doesn't even touch American charts. The Japanese market is smaller, but still one of the largest in the world (I wouldn't be surprised if it was labeled the 2nd largest entertainment industry, next to the USA). No matter, Ayu and the rest of the Avex crew still aren't hurting one little bit.
