The DVD editing/ mix/ mastering/ release is a pretty complex thing with a lot of people involved! But this one (finally!) is coming out. Third time's a charm or whatever .. ^^

I assume edel just doesn't want to put a firm release date before they are 100% sure they will be ready. In JVC's case they feel this date is when they will be 100% ready. In a way the band is even a little bit out of the loop with these details, and I don't mind.

When we have firm release dates for the whole world we will let you know of course!

If I had 50,000 Euro for every time I have said those exact words... well, then I'd have 150,000 euro I suppose.

That's good to know, hopefully the worldwide release will be shortly after the Japan release.

brought2ubyletterC:Jens just said there will be a worldwide release, he just wasn't sure when exactly it would be because of edel music doing a few last minute things with it.

Yes, I saw that part of his post; since he said that Edel (?) wasn't sure when the worldwide release would be, I was wondering if I should just get the Japanese copy. So my question was more along the lines of was it possible that the worldwide release would be a long time after Japan?

I could say something snarky, but that would be no way to treat the third most nicest poster this forum has ever seen. And so, I grant you this sloppy kiss instead:

Thanks Hiro; I just know that sometimes it can take up to over a year for a DVD to be released in NTSC format sometimes. I think the Nightwish End of an Era DVD took almost 2 years before it was converted to NTSC for North America.

brought2ubyletterC:I guess it depends on the company I guess, I do know several american dvd releases that came out only a few weeks after their Japanese counterparts.

Thanks Hiro; I'm not too worried about it since I have a DVD player that is PAL-compatible, so if I have to buy the Japanese release, I will.

I think it would also be great to include a second disc with special features.
