Another foreigner who understands the problem agrees with Mr. Rees.

I also hate Shift-JIS, just as much as I hate paying sales tax and 
doing laundry.  But guess what, hate doesn't matter.  If you don't 
support Shift-JIS then you are locking yourself out of 99% of the 
Japanese market.

You know what has happened in the past to other US companies who 
targeted limited markets while Japanese companies targeted worldwide 
markets?  Of course next will be Chinese companies.  Anyway, in the 
long run you will regret locking yourself out of markets.

By the way I think Nakai-san's statistics are skewed by counting only 
some web pages that are designed for ordinary computers.  If you 
count web sites that are designed for display on cell phones then I 
think they're 100% Shift-JIS.  When editing those pages it is 
enormously helpful to run an editor directly in the despicable hated 
Shift-JIS environment.
