So hmm it really makes me wonder, if they can dish out money for that crap, why cant they dish out money for Ayumi? (of course  i doubt there is any actual "HSM/HM" fans on this site, lol) !

Well considering that most people get their Japanese albums from online websites, the cost of shipping/etc would make it hard for someone to buy if they don't have the money to buy it, or even if they do have the album, it's a lot cheaper to buy for an artist they support and they can get it at a local store~
But I think Avex can't do anything to AHS because we're not stationed in Japan?
