Yeah, I mean there are plenty of US artists that haven't released new material in years upon years yet they still tour every year. Tours make them money, and it you have a catalogue of hits you can pretty much tour forever.

10. LOVE ～Destiny～

edit: as for angles, I checked Last minute and they was the same

This is really weird because the email sent out by TA said that it would be Music for Life Return that would be included in the Youtube Music Weekend, but it's definitely CDL :S

I suspect this is not the final edition for the DVD. There are a lot of angles and transitions her editing team doesn't use. But the audio seems edited enough to be released.

[Katsuyuki012]

It's the dTV re-broadcast.

The audio was so good on YT, I was wondering how come I didn't like it when I was watching it for the first time but looks like they switched it completely, rerecorded or the technology they use is so good. It was quite pleasant to watch this time, not all but such improvement.

I don't think they did any re-recording, the vocals seems the same she sang during live (maybe the exception being Depend on you, it had the most significant audio edition - thank God). They just corrected the pitch of most part of the songs, covered up some missed notes here and there, and the mixing is so much better, her voice blends well with the choir and the instrumental. When someone goes off-key in a not-well mixed sound output, it will be more noticeable because the voice stands out. But some songs had very little adjustments, like Secret, that it's almost the same thing she sang during live broadcast.
