PCDL HK version
 
I read this review at YA:

Quote:

Please Please Please! if you love watching Ayumi concerts and can afford to buy the JAPANESE version of Premium COUNTDOWN 08-09, then stay away from the Hong Kong version. IT HAS HARD SUBTITLES THAT CANNOT BE TURNED OFF!!! They are right in the frame of the concert. These are extremely distracting and take away from the whole live experience. I have emailed Avex Asia to complain about this problem. And you should too. The reason we all buy the Asia version is because it is half the price of the Japanese version. but if the stupid people at Avex Asia continue to butcher our beloved AYU, we may all be forced to pay more for the Japanese version.
Is it true? They put chinese hardsubs on the DVD? I mean, why would they do that? D: This is totally going to ruin the experience, man!

what @_@ i thought it could be turned off and that the TW press DVD can't? @_@

majrakun 31st May 2009 01:01 AM

Really? I do hope this guy is confused with the versions, because I just ordered the HK version yesterday T___T It's not like I can afford the JP version anyway D:

nanakopy87 31st May 2009 02:25 AM

they are going to take back all the old stock(which is HARDSUB) and re-release another batch where they improved on this :
- 16:9 anarmorphic
-subtitles can be turned off
-better quality (almost same as JP version)

majrakun 31st May 2009 02:30 AM

Okay, when did they start doing that? I JUST ordered yesterday, but it's through someone else, and I hope she gets informed by this change >_<

pommy48 31st May 2009 02:31 AM

so they won't redo the taiwan press then? @_@

oo did you order from ebay? maybe you can check again~

majrakun 31st May 2009 02:42 AM

Nope, I ordered through YA, but through my teacher, my friends are also ordering through her, she's nice enough to help us since she's also ordering ^^

ren0210989 31st May 2009 03:28 AM

^wow your teacher listens to Ayu????
cool :D

majrakun 31st May 2009 04:57 AM

No, she listens to Korean boybands, but since she offers us to make some orders through YesAsia together with her, it's all good!

wow..your teacher is so good :love
i wonder if we can cancel our order or not.if can,i would suggest you to re-order it again at mid-june ( to wait the new batch of dvd )
i'm not sure if YA will shipping out the new batch or old batch since HK there will only exchange the DVDs start from next week if not mistaken

majrakun 31st May 2009 06:14 AM

Oh man, have to cancel? I guess that's the best way, I hope she won't be annoyed with this. 0__0

nanakopy87 31st May 2009 06:19 AM

i'm not sure that the current stock that YA has is the new one or the first batch.or maybe you can e-mail to YA to ask ?

majrakun 31st May 2009 06:30 AM

Oh...I really don't know much about YA, actually. Just gave the name of my orders to my teacher @__@ how long does it take for YA to ship out anyway? Maybe if they haven't shipped out my copy, that means they'll give the new batch, right?

nanakopy87 31st May 2009 06:38 AM

hahahaha...i can't help you,sorry...i never bought any things from YA.that you have to ask them.lol...

P/s :i found out that YA doesn't have an e-mail address ??!!

freedreamer 31st May 2009 07:02 AM

yeah, the HK version was actually remake from the taiwan version, so it is the same.
but i'm fine with the subs, i actually bought the hk version because there's chinese sub. i got the japan version already, but i really like this concert so i would prefer to have subs on the screen.
but i'm wondering should i cancel mine, and reorder again because the quality will be better....hmmm

i think the stocks they have on hand are the old one, so you will end up with the hardsub version

they don't.

you have to log into your account, and under your order, there will be a option to contact them.

Guys~ I have the Taiwan version and the quality is perfectly fine! :) Just a slight difference with a DVD without subtitles. But I guess you should watch it from afar (like in a living room where the sofa is of a certain distance away from the TV). I've watched the whole concert in my room, on the bed, and it's perfectly fine. In fact, I like the subtitles thing because I don't have to refer to some translation sheet to see what they're talking about.

keikeiaznqueen 1st June 2009 10:58 AM

I actually like the subtitles, lol, I thought it was a great addition so I could understand the concert. XD;;

So I didn't go and find out if I could turn them on or off or anything... well...
