Can somebody tell me, what is BDM?

My only point was that this isn't something new from Avex's side. Nor other record companies for that matter. =)

Lol. Such editions are always released afterwards coz the biggest part of public won't buy them (remember RAINBOW and My Story dvd-audio). This edition is only for collectioners. Compare her DVD and Blu-ray sales, it's clearly seen that blu-ray is not yet that popular in japan now, though it's gaining popularity.

I suppose the blu-ray concert releases sold enough for them to try this out.

I saw a few blu-ray spec cd's in Japan, but they can be played on normal cd players too. Looks like this can't though...

blu-spec cds are something different, as I understand it has nothing to do with blu-ray.

UGH! Now I feel like... why did I get the CD+DVD? Oh, well, I'll keep that one sealed and buy this one for actual use since the Bluray is the proper region for my player. (:

I'm actually annoyed about this. I really want it but I've already spent my hard earned money on the CD+DVD version last month. I probably won't be buying this edition even though I really want to -_-

:tfrown How much would that cost..

I feel the same way, especially when the price difference is only 200 yen. Damn... I would buy the blu-ray if I didn't buy the cd+dvd. I dun have a blu-ray player, but I can download the songs here. In fact, I didn't touch my cd+dvd except looking at the booklets... :grumpy

Ugh, they needed to make this announcement much earlier. Maybe the idea was only greenlit after seeing how well FIVE was selling.

i totally want to get this, just for the fact that the region will be correct for me. i hate that all ayu's DVDs are the wrong region and its really a pain to play them.

*internal bleeding*

thanks God, I haven't bought FIVE CD+DVD for my collection, I was planning to grab OS press, but this bluray has changed my mind... Damn you a¥umi hamasaki!!

Your soul and your firstborn. :D

Lol same!

Some times ago, I wondered if avex'll release some of her dvd album in blu-ray as they started with dvd concert!

Wow i wonder if this will go towards FIVE's oricon count? if so it seems like it will help sales a lot from some fans who didnt buy it!

that would be an awesome news for me.. if I'd have a blu-ray player or a PS3 lol.

But that's great as well :laugh thanks for sharing

Waste of a bluray. No thanks

:rofl XD XD

Why Japan is one of the most expensive countries in the world !!!!
Anyway i haven't a blu-ray player :innocent:innocent:innocent

Tony already called it. Prepare your wallets people.

Wonder if she'll do this with singles as well... I was just thinking about this the other day. As we move towards the bluray age, will J-artists eventually make a habit of releasing CD/bluray versions of singles/albums/mini's or just save the blurays for concerts and big PV collections? It's interesting to think about.

This release however is a cheap and total utter cash in and Avex should be ashamed of themselves. Wasn't planning on buying anything FIVE related anyway so doesn't concern me. :P
