Putting large numbers of images in order and selecting the images for albums are troublesome.
The number of images put away each year per household is 1,000 (Fujifilm survey).
Designing layouts for individual pages takes time.
The demand for creating Photobook is strong, but most customers are dumbfounded when
they are confronted with large volumes of image data.
They also worry about how to layout the images and give up on
creating Photobook before they finish.

At the time of the first boom, not enough suggestions for services were made (such as services for sending
the photos, decorating/ presenting them, and preserving them).
This points to the importance of ways of integrating these products and services deeply into consumer
lifestyles.
