People who hate digipaks and member versions

You only hate them because your faves don't have them. But I bet you would love for them to have them and increase their sales.

no one is hating on digipacks, but you can't compare the number to group who doesn't have digipack.

like Aespa didn't beat blackpink.

If only Aespa did so called donations so that other people could own albums like Blinks did that totally weren't a thing to boost sales.

Actually no, manipulating the numbers and cheating is another reason why kpop will never be taken seriously by anyone other then kpop fans.

Not really.

Digipacks are the worst of them all imo because they they target bulk buyers exclusively and produce a lot of Cd waste at the same time.

They are the worst kind of product for the environment.

An average k-pop fan won't hesitate to spend $5-10 more for more inclusions. Digipacks are exclusively targeted to increase sales from bulk buyers and create waste.

If they didn't include CDs but had digital codes instead+ had other digital inclusions and maybe some physical PCs so that bulk buyers can increase sales without creating more waste it would be better. Bulk buyers don't care for the inclusions except PCs. Because stopping bulk buying altogether is a difficult task. Atleast companies can try to make their impact lesser.

So many gimmicks these days and yet fans still brag about sales like they are organic smh

My faves do them and I still think it’s trash

sm is doing everything to have a win over top girl groups.

but western public is not having it, the music is , the dancing is and the act in general looks live
