This version of "I
am..." album is sold in China and information is available here
thanks to orange89 from AYUNITE! forum. This one looks almost
exactly like the original CD, so it would be quite hard to tell if it
is a bootleg or not... The only way to distinguish this one from the
original: there is a white border around the front cover and also the
back cover.

Another version of "I am..." album, where it turns out to be a double CD. The first one appears to be just a copy of the original and the second one contains, among others, such songs as Love Estiny, Lust (?), End You, Sear and I am Kose (from the visee commericial)... This is sold on e-bay from the USA. | |||

And yet another version
of "I am..." album, also a double CD but with absolutely different
cover... Silly names of the songs in the track list are highlighted
in red...

And yet two more "I am..." bootlegs - thanks to ZyreX from Norway (AYUNITE! forum). In addition to different covers, the second one has the same track list as the original album, but the name of the last song is spelled incorrectly: "Endless soitow ~gonb with the wind ver~". | |||

One more version of this bootleg is sold on e-bay from Canada. A double CD called "The bestest of Ayumi Hamasaki". "Bestest"... I do not think anything else needs to be added. | |||

One more version of "I am..." is sold on e-bay from China and it is an 'All Code DVD - Ayumi MTV' containing some unspecified videoclips... A promotional poster was used to produce the cover... This DVD is also sold on Yahoo auctions in Japan and it is known now that this is, in fact, a bootleg copy of 'A Clips -vol.2'... | |||

This version of "I am..." is sold on e-bay from Germany and it is a double audio CD this time... The first CD is a copy of the original, with an addition of one song at the end, the second CD contains songs randomly selected from singles issued in 1999 and 2000. | |||

Thanks to JWBBAYUMI from AYUNITE! forum who sent detailed info about another version of "I am..." bootleg that is sold on e-bay from the USA. The CD has the tracklist identical to the original and a near-perfect booklet, but the differences are: the obi that goes on the side is made from very weak, flimsy paper and is too big to fit inside the case, plus it is fully in English (Ayu name should in either Japanese or Chinese); and the CD is a silvery translucent picture of the front, not as the original CD. Made by 'Alion Records' in Taiwan (?)... | |||

Thanks to Fabrizio from Mexico who identified an Internet shop 'Anime Arigato' that sells products of Taiwanese 'MIYA Records' (the CDs appear to be unlicenced, as catalogue numbers are absolutely different and 'avex trax' is nowhere to be seen...) One of the examples is a very cheap copy of "I am..." | |||
