It really does seem like a lame marketing strategy. Avex seems to keep recycling old material without offering much new material. Yes, A BEST vol. 2 will be a good release in another year or two, but using songs previously on A BEST and from 4 albums ago is a weak idea for a new album. (A better idea could be to make a Best remix album from all the remixes of songs that have been released, but I doubt Avex would do it.)

As Zan said, I'd consider buying it if it was the masterpiece that A BEST was -- re-recorded songs, re-recorded arrangements, etc. But if it's just a rehash of songs put together in a double-disk album, then I'll pass this release by.
