First of all, S.H.E has released only two BEST albums since their debut. One in 2003, "Together (Best Collection)" and another in 2006 "Forever (Best Collection 2003-2006)". If you ask me, that's not alot considering they have released 8 studio albums. They're one of the top selling groups in Taiwan and their second BEST album didn't debut on the top 10. Not to mention this wasn't the only example. Many famous singers in Taiwan don't sell well with their BEST albums. I can provide more examples if you're going to insist on this debate.

Are you going to use as many filter excuses as you can to support your statement that Eason's doing fine in Tawain because this sounds like a desperate attempt. First you said that Eason's album didn't do as well as Ken's album because Ken's was a BEST album. Then you resorted to saying that Eason did zero promotion. And then, the fact that he's a Cantonese singer and now that this is Ken's first BEST album and it was a tie in for a movie. For a foreign artist to do so well with a BEST album in another country is already a proven case that it's Ken's popularity that's sold the album, not because it's a BEST album. And let me just tell you that Eason's album was in Mandarin, the official language in Taiwan. So being a Cantonese singer may not have been the reason why the album didn't do so well.
I have proven my point. Eason is no big seller outside of Hong Kong. And he's nothing compared to Ayumi's popularity in Asia according to the sales. End of discussion for me as this is going to go in circles if persisted.
