The fall of message boards can easily be "blamed" on other plataforms.

Why would I bother registering in countless boards when I can log into tumblr and have all my info there? Or follow a jpop-dedicated facebook page or a hashtag in twitter? It's all more unified now, I think.

Japanese music industry make music for the Japanese people, they don't have any interest in selling their stuff overseas. So unlikely South Korea which is trying to gain more status in the western hemisphere, Japan won't ever try to do that, it just doesn't suit them and they don't care if J-Music is losing western fans, it's like they didn't even care we exist in the first place.

I see that a lot of indie J-Rock bands and small Pop singers tend to explore more their abroad experiences touring in Europe, USA and sometimes in Brazil (the country with the largest number of Japanese outside Japan), but it's because they're not attached to big record labels and they don't sell well even in Japan, so they don't have to maintain a certain behavior or anything, they don't have nothing to lose. But that is pretty much different when we talk about huge idols, like ayu, EXILE, AKB48.
I always felt this way about japanese entertaiment market, not only jpop... Even when the artists themselves seen to enjoy the idea of expanding their works abroad (and I include Ayu on that), the industry seen to not care enough about it.

Ayu didn't do a lot of promo, so i was expecting these sales. The three songs of Namie had tie-ins, miwa's new single had 3 tie-ins too and you can see her promoting in Music Station and Music Japan.

Oh, well...
That was a good enough result. Normal sales are normal. I'm glad.
