Question about Summer Tour 2007 Final Time DVD

[meleshia.livejournal.com]

Hello minna! This is my first post in the comm but is a lurker for the longest time ^_^ I don't know if this question has been asked already but I want to know what the difference is between the Summer Tour 2007 Final Time DVD JAPAN and Hong Kong version aside from the DVD region? Are the contents the same and can i buy either one of them?

Arigato! XD

I'm not familiar with this particular case, but the difference between a Japanese DVD and a Hong Kong DVD is generally that the Hong Kong DVD is pirated material, and buying it will not support the Japanese entertainment industry.

Actually, HK DVD is not pirated material, but official licensed as well. The difference is only the region and usually overseas version has chinese sub embedded.

There is also bootleg version at ebay (you can see it blatantly from the price and region-free dvd) but of course I wouldn't suggest that! :)

hi! as far as i know, the main difference is the DVD region and price. The Japan version is a region 2 DVD (for Europe and Japan) while the Hong Kong version is a region 3 DVD (i think the rest of Asia, or SE Asia, im not sure). HK version, i think, was also manufactured locally so the price is way lower than the Japan version. As for content, i think its exactly the same. ^_^

hi! what's the difference in presentation? Is the Japan version so much different and more drool-worthy? hehe XD

Thanks for the links, that's what I'm looking at too. ^_^

no... not that :p

it's just that on the hong kong version , you have a sign that says "avex group" and that the writing is in chinese.

it is written " made in taiwan/hong kong" not japan....

that's what i meant!

hihihi glad you're happy!

and if you've never ordered from play-asia , i assure you it's safe to order and quick!

i bought the Hong Kong version of AAA in Dome. It is distributed by Avex. The DVD is cheaper than the Japan version and it got chinese subtitle embedded (u cant turn off the subtitle eventhough it's DVD). i kinda distract me though.

hey! that's a nice thing to know... which makes the Japan version worth it for the extra money..hehehe. I'm not Chinese so I won't have any use of the subtitles. ^_^ Thanks!
