I don't understand why so many Japanese music corporations decide that only Japan should be able view promotional materials. YouTube is a very big offender when it comes to official videos being blocked by country or region. It's so bizarre to me that it's like this especially now that we live in the day where anyone can purchase music online through a variety of methods. Limiting potential viewers to those in Japan just limits the range in which people become fans. Sure, not everyone from every foreign country is going to understand Shiina Ringo. But why block her from those who might love her?
