it seemed like that u r thinking selling out big venues=higher sales for DVD
No, I wasn't talking about DVD sales at all. What I said was: if tour money counted on the list [not just single+albums] then SMAP, Southern All Stars and Mr Children would be before Ayu and Koda would be lower than Ayu because Ayu did a tour in big venues and Koda Kumi in smaller venues. Please, read what I post before complaining.

comparing Best~first things~ w/A BEST is kinda unfair since 1.3M now could have meant 2m+ (or sumthing like that) in 2001. so i advise other members not to look at the comparisions literally
OK, so if Best~first things~ was released in a very good year and sold two times what it did this year [2,4 million copies] then A BEST would still sell more.

And by the way, BoA best-selling single, Valenti, sold 184,120 according to Oricon.

And I don't understand why you advise members not to look at the comparisions literally. The numbers are true and most of the singles/albums are from the last two years. It's a fact: all the other Jpop female artists have a long way before they reach Ayumi Hamasaki.

Mika album was released a week earlier and it's a best album. Plus, Mika Nakashima is very big right now with all the Nana buzz and all and Mika is a very big artist, too. As a female artist, I think her albums just sell less than Ayumi and BoA [but I'm not 100% sure].
