Also, as you mentioned there is no doubt that she has had lip synched performances that are a matter of fact, not opinion.

And what you mentioned has yes, been discussed as a possibility here. I agree, that you can't rely on dvds because of the editing, but you can get a pretty good idea from comparing tv versions to dvd versions. It's too coincidental that they would just happen to use the audio from the tv version and put it over the DVD one imo when they could easily take the audio from any concert date to do that. Why pick the audio from the tv version that they know will send out a huge red flag to the audience that the performance might be lip synched?

I do think the lip-synchs somewhat often and there are some performaces that you don't even metioned that I'm pretty sure weren't live, and I think also that if the TV and DVD sounds are the same is because

a)she sang it well live
b)it was lip-synch

So still, we can't be 100% sure... Ayu lip-synchs much more than her biased fans think, but not so often as you all think she does in this thread... And I'm not saying this based on how much I love her or any of this crap, I just studied a little of vocal technic (still have a lot to learn, I'm just begining) and I do notice some singing mistakes in fancams or tv reports that magically disappear on DVD/latter aired on Tv versions...
