[Zachery!]

that's disappointing.

i was hoping for a global PHYSICAL release.

but it is better than nothing ... thank you for the news.

[TITANIC]

so sad there is no indonesia

[Kagome-chan]

omg ITALY *___*

[jon_the_d]

Wahhhhh!!!!!! UK got the ayu!!!!!!!

wooooo!!!!!

bout time.....let's see how many people will "discover" her now she's there and available

(and not hard to get and secret)

[baka-ranger]

so this is what they meant by global...
oh well I don't really mind haha
but OMG Australia...but I don't buy from iTunes you guys know where we get most our music from right
Well, I actualyl buy the real albums as well so it doesn't make a difference to me at all. Haha, I don't think many people throughout the world will even know Ayu is on iTunes now, which is pretty sad. Are they gonna put up advertisements on there or something?

[jon_the_d]

no way.

adverts would be far too much money and everyone would just be like:

"???? who the....what the.... ????"

and then keep walking

[Ayu_no_tenshi]

That is wonderful news~!

[Zemus]

Wow there is Finland too, very nice

[ayumisrael]

No israel T_T. We don't have out own itunes but we have a website which provied all legal downloads ot songs (for cash of course) I wish it could be there as well T_T.

[Anna Willow]

Great news! But I thought that would be 25 or 26 different countries... maybe they haven't decided all of them yet...

[Linza-mo]

Ayumi wasn't the first Japanese artist on Itune around the world
But thanks for this very good news !!

[hiroshi_ben]

i think they didnt cater to asia countries because we could easily get ayu's stuffs as compared to the countries listed??

and anyway it didnt say that ayu is the first japanese artists who does that.It just said that ayu was the first japanese artist to have the largest amount of songs distributed on itunes.

I see!! thanks! going to change it now!

[tourniquet]

12 € for a digital release? 1 € for an interlude? I'm never gonna get what people attracts to legal downloading when they can buy a physical copy for not-that-much more. D:

[Neo Daydream]

Yay! thanks for the info! congrats, Ayu! ^^

[AyuGAME]

SUPPORT HER GUYS!!! buy it

[rikku411]

So basically, they've added it to USA store too.

They have some of her other albums, so I didn't really expect this is what they meant by WORLDWIDE RELEASE... but it does seem like the most practical way :p

At least they told us when it's available though, lol. Not random postings

Hmm, to buy or not to buy -- considering I already have GUILTY. They should've included an album-only bonus heheh (joke)

It would be AWESOME if she made an iTunes (non-Japan) top 10

[AyuHamasaki01]

FINAALLLY AYU SEES THE NETHERLANDS AS A COUNTRY!

I'm so happy!
and I'll wait patient until it will come in stores (but, I already have it so it's not necessary )


seeing the netherlands in that row makes me go like all crazy my heart can't take it!
someone catch me...

[cloud♥honey]

That's good to hear. But oh messy tracklist.
