And the latest one was released in 2003. How is it fair in any way to hold her to those standards?

then maybe it's NOT smart at all do release CDs during a tour.. I mean, they'll get money out of it, of course; but people who buy the CD there, won't buy it at the store; meaning they it will be a disadvantage to the sales.

I really don't think the record companies care that much about what sales Oricon reports, it's the profits that matter. Where they get these, they don't care : P

fair enough since it consists of more songs than normal. most artist have the same story, look at Namie Amuro (60s70s80s) and Koda Kumi (4 hot wave) for example.
L deserve higher sales than MOON/Blossom and Crossroad

But... namie and kuu didn't have another single released a week prior to the multi-A..

Somehow I think crossroad's sales may affect L's sales, as they may not have enough money to buy more L. I mean, usually hardcore fans may buy more than one version of the single rite? If they bought all 3 crossroads last week, they may not be able to buy all L this week? Probly they can only afford 1 - 2 copies of L?

Of course this is just my speculation. There're other reasons if L is not selling as good as crossroad (not enough promotion? the songs are not as good as crossroad according to casual listeners? etc.)

And maybe L will sell better than crossroad in the end? I dunno
