Namie Amuro will have her Best Fiction tour released on Blu-ray on Sept. 9 and be one of few artists to ever grace such a high definition format. Oddly enough, Japan who is light years ahead of technology is handicapped by the world’s out of date standards and sees few releases on Blu-ray. What’s the point of my HDTV? Oh well.. The other Avex artist you can catch on Blu-ray is Ayumi Hamasaki.

Most of BoA’s music tours and other Avex artists are filmed on hi-res film so converting to Blu-ray would be a cinch. I hope that Avex will release BoA’s tours and MVs in HD as well.

Catch the previews for Namie’s tour below!
