I belive that one day Blu-ray will step ahead n become the main disc being used =] It's a new era
Back to the topic, somehow I have a feeling that NEXT LEVEL will be released in both Blu-ray and DVD version, just like BF Tour of Namie.

Namie pretty much is the biggest female performer at the moment next to ayu, so ayu will probably do it when namies bluray sells well

it matters to you? wow, high maintenance. i'm wondering too, but could care less. maybe when i become OCD about the quality and see the pores of my idols, i'll probably care.

but on a lighter note, maybe Avex doesn't want to jump into that marketing strategy yet and want to carefully go into it with the best release [ideas] because they actually consider the economic state of Japan... and other countries that have Ayu fans. seem logic? i think so. and so, someone else may come and differ, and lalala, it's a beautiful day.

i never said their dvd could compare to blu ray . true once you watch a blu ray you can't come back to dvd but some advice can upgrate your dvd to sightly higher quality.
personally i like blu ray better because its so sharp and detail you can see really everything +blu ray is most likely to have ore bonus and extra feature than a regular dvd.

since the HD dissapears its most likely that dvd will slowly dissapears too . especially if they keep lowering the price . now dvd are so cheap !
look at the vhs for exemple . it took a while but now it completly dissapears .

well i hope they will release her new tour on blu ray . that would be handsome .

bluray sucks. It's like releasing the ps3. just more annoyment for people that only own a ps2 cause ps2 isn't completely compatible with ps3 and having to swtich over is expensive. Maybe its cause no one is doing it.

Ayumi released tons of remixes on her singles cause it was the thing, then she started releasing them in cd/dvd cause again, it started becoming popular. just wait till the pain in the ass blueray kicks in and we all have to go waste money switching over. cause dvd just isn't good enought apparently. >>

^ appereantly you never watched a bluray before, its different than remixes, remixes were a trend, bluray not, bluray WILL happen(it will take some years, but some day it will completely take over the DVD market, in like 5-10 there wont be new dvd releases anymore) and bluray is tons of times better than DVD, its just like the DVD took over the VHS market, do you say that only was a trend? if so: stick to your vhs!

Yes, there is always a way to make something even better, improvement all the way, but the question is if people perhaps might be already really happy with what they got so I can absolutely understand that not everyone is willing to follow the new trends of the industry.

Quality is more a thing of well-done content, too...

[PinkShinigami]

I don't really get, I think it's okay.. ayu was the first Japanese person to release a USB album, Namie the first with Blu-Ray.. fair enough

I think ayu releasing a Blu-Ray DVD in the NEXT LEVEL-era would be too much "I'm not fading out because I'm desperate, buy me!" alike

[noidea]

^ well, seeing how DVDs sell more than Bluray at the moment, it would be more like "hey, look, I'm innovative! first USB and now Bluray! I truly support new formats! buy me!" xD

[ayumisrael]

And the USBs were smashful success, they even needed to re-stock them and make more than they intended.

Too bad it was limited though.

[LacusClyne]

^not to mention that they did a great design on the USB, if the design is crappy, i don't think the demand would be so high.

[aura~]

I only have BluRay in my computer because it's a VAIO, but I'm happy with DVD's.... are cheaper in all ways... movies are cheaper and also DVD players are cheaper, and doesn't make you buy an special TV for it...

[douggn]

It would be good maybe some years from now but its a bit pricey to do on bluray but it would be a big flop I think because only a hand full of people have access to a bluray player and I don't think it would make to much of a profit and in the end that's what it comes down too

[y_nathz]

there's still a lot of people who dont have blu-ray player

[Ayumi_lover]

btw, it's not avex fault, it's more TeamAyu fault as for me, the same as fake 5.1ch sound at Ayu's dvds - TeamAyu shoot her concerts in HD but doesn't mind releasing blu-ray and edit 5.1 ch making this fakeish and not real as it was recorded

[asmAyumi1992]

Is blu-ray can be played through the usual DVD player?

[nanakopy87]

nope..only BLU RAY PLAYER can play BLU RAY DISC
and its quite expensive in my country

[asmAyumi1992]

^Ahhh..

No wonder there's nobody I know have it.

[ayumi.hamasaki]

you can play blu-ray with PS 3, too

my boyfriend has one so I can play blu-rays

I have ordered Namies tour in blu-ray and would love to order ayus next tour in blu-ray, too

[SURREAL__RAINBOW]

I will buy blu-rays only if AVEX gives with it a blu-ray player for free

[asmAyumi1992]

^haha. The same for me
