[Oricon] ASIA TOUR 2007 A ~Tour of Secret~ ranking thread

Well, for the NUMEROUS fans who have already seen her concert, getting her concert DVD is just kind of like a bonus for collection? Yup, if you've seen it, you'll probably remember it. I guess the bulk of them are fans, but they're probably civic-minded enough to not splurge excessively on Ayu items.

Don't forget the goods and the stuff that they buy too! That accounts for A LOT of the revenue. DVDs are obviously more expensive. So if you really factor in the costs, that would cost a lot! It's good though to release DVDs, because fans who haven't managed to watch the concert can watch it, and well, the smaller pool of die-hard Ayu fans can collect the DVDs!

And since it's an ASIA TOUR, I'm pretty sure it'll sell better overseas too like Hong Kong, Taiwan and China! I think overseas fans tend to value and treasure Ayu items more than the Japanese do. But I guess absence makes the heart grow fonder. It's because her overseas fans aren't in direct contact with her that perhaps they are more attached to Ayu items rather than the Japanese, who would look upon Ayu as less "exclusive" than her overseas fans, explaining perhaps the lower sales of her DVD. It has always been the case anyway.
