I have, and it's well argumented but I don't agree on all points.
The only reason for this friggin 8-track is, I believe, profits, profits, profits and more profits. Just look at it this way: Avex could let Ayu record 8 more songs [which would cost studio time and paychecks for a team of writers] and release a $20 album, OR put all the finished tracks so far [with some new stuff, but not too much] on a CD and add a DVD with the PVs [which were already done as well] and sell that for $33. Ipso facto, that costs the same or less for Avex and makes hella lot more money.
And furthermore, I don't get the obsession people have with quantity. Why is 16 tracks better than 12 tracks on an album? It's all about the quality! I heard people [not in this thread] say that they don't like Duty because it has just 12 tracks. Balls! That's no reason. All in all, and on this point I do agree with Delirium-Zer0, we should be happy. Blah.
Don't get me wrong, I agree on a lot of points with Delirium-Zer0, just not on the Avex strategy.
