Yep. All I have to do is hop on the 2 train and go to Manhattan. There's a Kinokuniya book store there. They have all the latest J-Pop stuff in CD and CD+DVD format. That's where I'm going to buy DREAM CD+DVD.

Yep. There's lots of places I can buy Japanese/Korean music. It probably helps that I live in a very Asian-dominated place.

There isn't a single jpop CD in my country, at least not in stores (just people who purchased from CDJapan/yesasia have jpop CDs here I suppose). xD

hmm... where I live, there is a Kinnokuniya and a Mitsuuwa. Also, in a mall around where I live, there is a store that sells lots of Miya Records CD. I used to buy those CDs till I found out they were bootlegs.

Not really. I have to drive a half hour to get to San Francisco, which is the only place that I know of that sells J-Pop.

..and it's expensive. Very expensive.
