It's interesting to note that Japan still guards their music like crazy, and not just music, the same applies to dramas/anime etc. I mean, why is it still almost impossible to find full music videos of Jpop on Youtube? They still sell music videos while Korea stopped doing that. Korea shifted its focus to YT so their music videos have 100k million views and more. And their music is still more popular.

I think that reflects Japan's general view on copyright issue and how closed their country is. Not sure if it is a good thing though. Music is not selling as it used to.
