Guest Magatsu Posted February 5, 2014 100% a PV DVD again for 2100 yen. seems Kiwamu will sell his PVs this way. and still asking the full price for the CD only. fans should spent right now even more money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
otterley_ 192 Posted February 6, 2014 I don't think the main problem is to sell a DVD with only a PV and a live digest, but sell a DVD-R at this price. How much does a DVD-R costs? 25 cents? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Magatsu Posted February 6, 2014 Its also his own webshop only. Dvd cost about 50cent. And fun fact is that kiwamu doing the pv production himself. Filming and editing included. So we kinda pay for his hours plus the hours they needed to get it on tape. And of course location costs. Its not that strange that price. And the dvd is about 40min long. But still expensive. But this kind of prices are needed if you want to make profits out of dvds/cds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
violetchain 912 Posted February 6, 2014 ^Yes, I was just about to write something similar. I don't think it's the physical DVD you pay all that money for, it's the cost of shooting the videos. I remember reading on Daisuke from THE SOUND BEE HD's blog "We sold enough to make up the production cost!", or something to that effect, a little while after their PV collection was released. I assume Kiwamu bought a camera and some gear recently, and since he and 1000 from Tokami are apparently directing most of these and he's also doing all the editing they're cutting corners on renting and staff, but there are still probably a few things they need to pay for like the location, lighting and props (although these could all be quite cheap, depending on the video and whether or not they're recycling old stuff) + as Magatsu said, everyone should also be compensated for their time, since they have to plan, film, edit, perform, etc. Then of course they need to buy the actual discs and cases and print the covers, all of which probably isn't too expensive, but still costs some money. $21 for one PV and one camera digest live footage still feels ridiculous though. He could at least make the live footage from more than one angle and of the whole show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Magatsu Posted February 6, 2014 Yes,but he doesn't want to give us one more camera angle or a full show. But one camera can be ok. At least if you place that on on the right place. Or if you move your ass to film the concert. But 2100yen for 1 dvd. Then you have fast your costs back. Selling 5 is already 9500 yen. And kiwamu sells at least 30 of such kind of dvds.
