I really regret not discovering them before.

For me now, I avoid Jpop idol groups, Kpop idols made them look bad in my eyes (excpet NEWS, and I try squeeze some Arashi in my iPod) and Kpop solo artists since most of them release something once every 2 years, and I'm spoiled by Ayu and other Jpop solo acts who release singles regulary

I might (again) regret some decisions later, but I'm comfortable with the way my music library looks now

I agree with you especially about the KPop thing. I know sometimes they sounded the same, the auto-tune, and the lack of musical styles. But they are talented and entertaining imo.
