only their core fanbase gets their albums. JE singles sell much more because they're cheaper (which is convenient for their target group: teenage girls), they usually have a big tie-in (i.e. "Love so sweet" for HYD2), & of course, multiple versions.
i think the reason why "Dream'A'live" is not selling as much as "Step & Go" is because "S&G" was their first CD+DVD single release ever. "D'A'L" does not have a DVD, just a bonus 2nd disc of solos.
a DVD is a much better deal than a 2nd disc, IMO. KAT-TUN's upcoming album should sell better than their last album b/c of the DVD that has the PV+making-of for their May 14th single, "DON'T U EVER STOP."
