Where have you been? ALL of AKB48 singles released in 2011 sold over 1 million copies (5 singles). Not to mention some of them sold more than 1 million in a day which set the new single sales record of all time in Japan.
And i understand the frustration of some people here, you spend your hard earned hundreds dollars on something and other just wait at home to download it for free. But face it, not everybody has that much money, most of us here don't live in Japan, 300$ maybe not much in Japan but in our countries it's huge money. And i don't think sharing the Complete Clip Box here would affect the sales at all. Not everybody will have the time and/or data quota to download all 4 BRD (which is 124GB).
