The Target Red CD only contained b-sides that you have already had released over there. I don't understand the fixation with this CD.

I agree. The US/Canada get the bare minimum once again. We basically have 2 options...1) don't buy the imports or 2) buy the imports for alot of money. Either way we lose.

That's right...and to get the same songs, we had to buy all the singles, (2 versions of each) at a cost of a couple of pounds per single...which adds up to much more that the Target CD cost....so there!

We have to buy every CD for a lot of money. We here don't get any CD for 10 or 12 dollars but have to pay way more per CD. Every CD,not only BJ but also for CDs of bands where we aren't big fans of. Maybe you should think about this. As well as the Target CD costed 6,95 Dollars. We had to buy 4 or more CD-singles to get the songs, each 6 Dollars.

So I could say that it is unfair that we have to buy multiple CDs to get the songs and have to spend multiple money and the Americans only had to buy one CD with all songs which costs only a small part of what we have to pay.

Now complain again.

Whyare some of the Americans crying over having no bonus tracks when the reason for this has been explained many times by many people. If I go into any big music shop in Kobe or Osaka and decide to buy the latest album, most of the time i will get a choice between two versions: an American import, or a Japanese version which is more expensive but has extra tracks.

People should be buying the album to hear the new tracks anyway, not for the bonus tracks.

Just to clarify, CD's around here are not 10-12 dollars unless they are in the bargain bin. They cost more than that. I would say between 15-20 dollars.

You can buy a CD like Cross Road in America for about 16 Dollars. In Holland you buy such a CD for about 19 Euro's. That's a lot more expensive. A new CD costs about 23 Euro's. That's even more difference.

Salaam Aleikum,
