lol! That's the reason why the album never sold over a million! Most of the people downloaded it! Double edged sword...

Maybe, but considering what the Album did sell physically, even with having the top number in downloads, it's quite a feat in itself. To remain on the top with physical sells even with an exuberant amount people still downloading the album (Which can kill an Album's sales, which in this case it obviously didn't), causing her to dominate that realm as well. Wow. But yeah, I would have loved for more people to have purchased the physical album, like I did, than to download it. Album would have been NUCLEAR.

is it cheaper to buy the whole album of iTunes Japan than a physical CD? maybe some fans prefer the convenience of iTunes?

Yeah, it's only $9.99 to purchase the Album on iTunes whereas ordering it online is much more with tax and shipping as well adding to that. Don't know how much it is in Japanese stores though where you can just walk in and pick it up off of the shelf. I would still imagine it's more expensive than $9.99 though.
