Ooo, so it was Hawaii that snowy kiss and Wake me up were filmed. I wonder if Sweet scar was LA or Hawaii.

That's true for older iPods, the newer models have practically no quality loss compared to average to good Computer Sound cards if one can believe a couple blind tests.
But yeah, "snowy kiss" has such a complex, full arrangement and tight mix that it was made for good speakers(or, even better: headphones). If you listen on anything but amazing speakers the reflection of the sound from all around you will make this particular track sound muffled when the mix is incredibly clear really. And headphones obviously get rid of the reflection problem entirely.
So as long as you don't have awful earphones/headphones.(hello Apple! Producing the worst earphones on the market but making them so "stylish" that everyone uses them and selling them with iPods to make sure everyone got a pair!)

I must say i LOVE this mini album. It's much better than the previous. If you have a good pair of headphones like Delicious n Bold said it's totally worth it.

Favourite is definitely Wake me Up

If one of those releases would be the concert DVD I'm pissed. That wouldn't be a gift to fans, 'cos we would get it anyway.

DVD of Arena Tour 2012 is predictable,but A BEST3....NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd like to see the 5th release is a full album instead of a best album...
Best album is unnecessary...it would ruin herself again like A SUMMER BEST...
Please no more BEST album...............!!!!!!
