I wish the CDs were this cheap

I love/hate that Capsule/Kyary albums are on iTunes for a fraction of the physical CD cost. I realllly want the CDs but how can I pay $16.99 for a single when I can get it on iTunes for $2.99!!!!!!!!!! What's up with that?! I do appreciate Japanese record companies making these songs available in the USA for low prices (comparatively), but I'd much much rather have compact discs. But since singles are nearly $20 (or over for "limited" editions) and albums are over $30, I'm stuck with digital versions. Japanese CD prices have long been absurd, and it's even more appalling when Korean albums are half the price with outstanding packaging and quite frankly at this point.....better music......
Another thing I like about Korean music releases is that on iTunes, the original Korean song title is retained. I would like to see Japanese albums follow this format because the sight of Japanese song titles written with roman lettering hurts me so much that I have to rename the track titles as it would look had I purchased the original CD.
********5 stars for pamyupamyu and any other Nakata Yasutaka music. Go buy all of it, and if you have an extra few thousand dollars to spend, get the physical CDs***********
