The TA is juggling with the old and the new TA again. If they give a lot of things for the cheap TA they'll hurt the feeling of expensive TA members who won't renew their membership. TA is in a delicate state of transition. You can see that as a Beta version of an website. There are always things that need improvement. So before to complain, I'll just wait for the real and utter Global TA.

The fact that this transitional phase is so problematic is really unprofessional to me though. Things keep getting promised that aren't delivered, Avex and Ayu's staff are doing NOTHING to make sure Japanese and gaikokujin fans feel united as one group, and overseas fans get no "consolation prize" or substitute bonuses or second-tier things to make up for the stuff we can't be in Japan to get or do.
Like shouldn't overseas fans be able to purchase a misanga through TA? Shouldnt old TA novelties that we never had a chance to receive be reproduced in limited numbers so we can purchase them? Shouldn't every tour get live streams that we can watch from home at a discount so we don't miss out on earlier shows from Ayu's tours? Some of us have been fans for ages, and would love to play catch up too - it would be really great just to bring back the screen savers, downloads, and galleries from before 2006 that were taken off the TA site, but if those original files are lost already then I suppose there's not much that can be done there. But that's the kind of thing that wouldn't be all that thrilling to older Japanese fans who have seen it already, but some of us overseas fans would feel like we're digging through treasure!

tbh ayu seems to be in the middle of a crossroad... She stated last year she intended on expanding her career to Asia, but seems like she had to go back to Japan comfort her original fanbase due to many reasons already discussed on other threads. So I guess that's why they're not giving Global TA the proper attention for now, and also maybe why she's making a TA Tour instead of taking concerts overseas as it seemed to be her plan. I guess we'll have to wait at least till next year to see her expansion, but I hope she does not leave these plans behind forever...

Seeing that the TA exclusive Summer diary PV is immediately ripped and uploaded I do not wonder why avex doesnīt put much effort on TA website and posts stuff short afterwards on official site or youtube.

^ It's overseas fans who share TA content, japanese fans would never do that tbh

Japanese fans usually post their reactions, but never the content itself or at most they'll post an image. I suppose it comes from years and years of not really being able to be part of the fan club easily up until recently and having to scrounge for what you could get.
I am not too bothered by it despite being a fan club member since more fans are able to enjoy, that's fine, because we're all TA IMO.

And I think thatīs maybe one of the reasons Japanese TA fans dislike the global ones.
I can imagine that some of them think we global fans destroyed their exclusive TA content.

I remember they got super mad when some people posted setlists the day or two after concerts happened and that doesn't even have anything to do with TA members for the most part. It's a bit tougher to hold back on information when you're not actually able to see any of the shows. I think opening up TA globally was a good idea, but it should have probably been done years ago.

This is my own opinion, i think what you said is right. Maybe thats why avex just put the short version, because they already guess it that it will be spread as soon as they upload the PV. So i think it makes TA not exclusive anymore.. No more excitement to be a part of TA.. Just only the concert lottery and audience thing looks like special. But you know although you're TA member thats will not guarantee you to get the best seat for concert. So in my opion nowadays joining TA is not a good decision anymore.. |

One person made a mistakes, and because of that ayu's staffs start to post short version even for TA members... Thats make lots of people disappointed and stop renew their TA membership.. How many lost that will occure on ayu's side? I actually think share something we know to everyone is okay, but not the whole thing. Remember what misa-chan did before? She post the translation to her blogs and set the password.. She can control everyone who want to see the blogs and warned them to not post it everywhere. But if some people posted it in public, what is the different between post it on youtube? Maybe if you share some pictures from the video, its okay. But the whole video is a big no no.. Now you can see the summer diary PV is everywhere in facebook. So what is the privileges that TA members will get? And trust me some of the members here also got dissapointed. Have you ever think about Japanese TA members? If there are lots of Japanese TA members don't want to renew their membership. Will ayu be hurt? |

At least lots of people can see it right? Even though they gave a watermark its still useless.. So its not special anymore.. For me its okay, but its kinda the same with they upload it on youtube.. Thats why they don't give the full version even for TA...

It will be released anyways sooner or later. I donīt know why ppl are always so impatient, as it whould kill them to see it one week later or so....
Itīs still my opinion that itīs extremly disrespectful. I remember cleary my first look at TA website, it was like 2006 I think, a friend who was a member showed me the site, it was amazing back then, with lots of making of pictures of PVs, CMs and such, and so many Picture of the day stuff, I wish we whould get that back, but with the "share"-mentality of the overseas fans itīs quiet impossible now.
