Regrding P2, having a song at the top of iTunes (and for more than just a couple days) goes a long way in terms of convincing stations to spin. Agree! Radio couldn't ignore those sales. |

OMG!! Daughtry's album is exactly like his last two only not as good! Was that another Moser article? Yep. But I'm not sure they were his words. Would have to read it again - sounded like part of PR & I don't think Moser listened to the album. My impression only. |

nice to see a small upward arrow at amazon movers & shakers this morning green arrow up 95% Sales rank 270 (was 525) Does the Japan TP have different bonus tracks than the US and UK?
The Japan Edition has the same bonus tracks as the US, plus "By the Rules".

Why would people in Japan be ordering the US import?

Why would people in Japan be ordering the US import?
My guess is, this particular ordering demographic which is actually a very, very small segment of general Japanese Amazon music buying population, likes the price is right, and most likely is more familiar with English (and prefers getting their music on iTunes).
The import version is a lot cheaper (almost 2x less) than the Japan Edition, i.e. TSP (US import) costs approx. $16.28, compared to the Japan Edition of $29.20. In general, CDs are a lot more expensive in Japan than the rest of the world.
There're only 4 foreign albums, 2 of One Direction(UK import and Japan Edition), a pre-order of compilation CDs(UK import) of Green Day and Overexposed(US import) currently in the top 100 overall music on Amazon Japan, charting respectively at #66 & #88, #46 and #98. However, foreign artists definitely have their fair share on iTunes. Wild Ones (US import) currently charting at #10 Overall iTunes, is showing only at #344 Overall Amazon; TSP (US import) is at #35 Overall iTunes, yet at #204 Overall Amazon (#6 in Pop).
