HIDE’S REQUEST REGARDING HIS RECORDINGS:
“I don’t want to upload my recordings on bittorrent sites anymore because a Japanese bootleg shop has sold most of my recordings. There are also many debates regarding me & my recordings at a Japanese SNS site. So, I don’t want to share with those people. But I will provide my recordings on these great DVD/Blu-ray projects!”

DVD PRODUCTION PROCESS: Audio and video assets edited in iMovie 6.0.3; authored, multiplexed and burned to VIDEO_TS folder in iDVD 7.1.2 (Professional Quality 2-pass variable bit rate encoding)
