[scans] Chinese OS versions
 
heheh i don't post very often (or at all) so sorry if this is in the wrong forum! :innocent

just go back from china about a week ago and bought some ayu cds. thought you guys might want to see the changes that avex asia has made to ayu cds there!

btw - these are aren't fake! they're licensed to be distributed in china by avex asia and distributed by CRSC (china record shanghai corp).

LOVEppears album
Info: this only comes as a one cd set (CD 1 of japan ver) and doesn't come w/ a poster :(

most of the other cds released don't look much different from the original ver. except "I am..." whose booklet pages have been put in the wrong order -___-

interesting... are you sure these are original?

denadel 1st July 2005 12:40 AM

That's cool :)
Ive never seen chinese covers before. Thanks for sharing :)

BanFan 1st July 2005 12:57 AM

Aren't those bootlegs? ><;

Hmm...*checks some bootleg page*

Edit:Hm...I guess they are real...

MsMiyabi 1st July 2005 01:55 AM

I love the Duty Cd Color and no there are not bootlegs.

Corybobory 1st July 2005 02:02 AM

I see Ayu's belly!!

devilayu 1st July 2005 02:29 AM

I find it interesting that Avex Asia issues (sort of) different packaging for Taiwan, China, and HK. The CD's from Taiwan look exactly the same as the Japanese ones.

>_< I always prefer Japanese versions. The pics above.. even if they're licensed, those logos and fonts just spoil it.

btw, i agree w/ you guys - japanese ver. cds DO look better. i actually could have bought most of these at narita airport, but i didn't. why? chinese OS ver. albums only cost approx. $7.25 USD each and chinese OS ver. singles only cost approx $4.75 USD each. in total, i bought 8 albums and 4 singles. guess how much all of it cost? $77 USD as opposed to the nearly $250 USD i would have spent in narita. either way, i would have supported ayu by buying legit CDs, so why not support her and not give my wallet a heart attack at the same time? that's my two cents :P heheh if you're wondering i did wind up buying my story classical and step you/is this love at narita b/c neither has been released in china yet ><. even those 2 cds cost over half of what i paid for 12 cds (approx $43 USD).

btw, i didn't scan all of them b/c i have to go out soon but i also have these that i can scan later:

A BEST
Moments
INSPIRE/GAME
Carols
RAINBOW
MY STORY

Gunblitze 2nd July 2005 01:05 AM

neat , ive never seen the chinese versions :)

~Matt~ 2nd July 2005 01:41 AM

they're cool :P

Euroboy 2nd July 2005 02:02 AM

thanks :) that's awesome... i have the "I am..." OS version album... but the pages aren't messed up... i guess it was only on a few booklets.. haha! That's actually pretty funny. They'll probably end up costing a lot of money in the future. keep it safe and protected.

There are a few different OS versions, so you may not have a CD from the same batch/printing factory.

Qsenwill 2nd July 2005 03:08 AM

i have Chinese OS versions such as rainbow,i am,forgiveness,my story~~~~~hahah,they are very cheap.my story(cd only) cost me 18yuan(about 2.3dollar)

starr5245 3rd July 2005 04:02 AM

I even saw some INSPIRE CD+DVD. They're soo cheap! Yet the quality is the same. I just don't like the packaging. So not Japanese >.<

kinix 3rd July 2005 05:41 AM

Please dun be mistaken by the OS versions. The usual OS version that yesasia sells is either Taiwan or Hongkong. This version u have is the China version not chinese...And usually china version are the worst as u can see for urself... So many words on the booklet and the colors are diffferent. However the Hongkong and Taiwan versions are almost totally same with the Japan version. And they also includes a chinese translation lyrics in the disc.
Do the china version have it since u didnt mention about it...
