I happily forgot all about the ban...
As for the reason, I think it's up to some interpretation, but I remember reading somewhere that Avex said the items were never meant to be sold outside Japan and retailers have made a mistake until now. That might mean Avex fears copyright consequences for itself and they interpret JASRAC's rules harshly. Japanese firms need to pay royalties to local copyright organizations if they sell music to other countries, which would mean Avex hasn't done that. If that's true, we can hope other labels aren't as stupid.
