But anyway, I quoted you two because I think AVEX were in the wrong for overpricing the albums. =/ That might be a reason as to why it's doing "bad". I mean, AC had the same amount of content and both versions were cheap and set at a reasonable price. I just think the price they are asking for is a bit steep and sort of a rip-off.
Well, actually... I can't say that Avex is wrong for overpricing the album. In this current fluctuant economy, prices are very fluid and unstable. Avex may be testing the market to see how much selling power they have, but I guess we now see the poor results. It's actually quite common during booms and recession since the paper company I'm working in is doing the exact same thing. Prices are constantly negotiated due to competitive pricing.
