[Official Message] Youtube channel

[Karori]

If I'm not wrong, avex deleted most of full PVs...

[Lanz16]

What the?!?
Its no longer PV that im watching in her channel but a PVC, Promotional Video Clip.

[AyuWorld]

^ oh really?? they deleted most of the PVs and replaced them with the prmotional clip?? but why?? =.=

[Karori]

^ Yes. I don't see the point of deleting the full PVs and start uploading short versions instead. It is so unfair...

[nanakopy87]

so that people won't just download it from youtube.they do so so that the new fans who just started to follow ayu will like 'ah.i have to buy her cds so that i can watch them in full version'

[Aderianu]

avex didn't delete full PV... I think they just close the access
look at the myspace page and click on MW, Rule, BB or YOU PVs
I have message that this video only for favorites

lol.well,not all will do so
i am one of the minority who decides to buy her CD+DVD just for the PVs.although we can find higher quality of the PVs here,but the feel of watching it from the DVD and from the downloaded video is different XD
i guess no one will understand what i'm talking now .haha

[Picaflor 7/4]

^especially not since all her dvds are region coded.

Maybe you're right. I tried playing videos from Ayu's MySpace and all I got was the following message: "This is a private video. If you have been sent this video, please make sure you accept the sender's friend request."

Anyway, it is SO infair...

ahaha,i understand what you mean,yes the feeling is not the same as we watch it in the DVD and hold the album with our own hand

Honestly, considering that avex has begun putting Ayu's PVs on various itunes stores in different countries, I'm not surprised that they did this.

[AyumiAi]

I have a question if avex wants people to stop downloading their videos, suppose there werent other means of obtaining Ayu music videos (like downloading them here) How would they expect anyone to see her old music videos that didnt come with a dvd of the music video?!
lol fail IMO XP

[gallowsCalibrator]

^ Lol, good point

That's exactly what I was thinking, lol. It makes sense for the recent stuff that they want people to buy but what about her older more obscure stuff that you can only find the occasional DVD on ebay/YAJ once in a while? What would be the point in deleting those? Hell, until I found her YT channel I had never even seen the videos for Voyage, WHATEVER, RAINBOW, YOU, etc. and never knew they had existed.

[miki_beland]

well, in that case, you'll have to buy the complete clip box u_u

[*hearT_Place*]

^ The problem with that is, I'm not spending that kind of money on DVDs I can't play because I don't have access to a Region-free or Region 2 DVD player.


I do think it is kind of silly that they are suddenly taking her videos down. Personally, I won't buy one unless I've seen it the whole way through, and her Youtube site is the best way for new/potential fans to be introduced to her work. Especially fans living outside of Japan.

[gallowsCalibrator]

H-huh...? I looked at the YT channel and all of them are full length... (O_o)

edit: Oh, wait...never mind XD I saw the playlist XD The PV's are still full length there :3 (or at least some of them )

[Elednist]

The full version of PVs aren't deleted, they only have added a short version of the PVs, although there are some PVs that aren't able to be watched in it full version :-(

This is exactly what Im thinking why they do that!
Its sad how newer fans couldn't see her older works with those Old PVs.
