DVD cuts, what do they mean?

posts: 67
I was browsing the DVD pages randomly and just saw the "Cut" thing

http://www.takarazuka-revue.info/tiki-index.php?page=TCA+DVDs

So I was wondering what this cut means?

my DVDs so far have no cuts so I have no example, and some of the DVDs I'm indented to buy have "yes" on the Cut section.

I remember a video on you tube from Sena Jun's concert SENA where the audio of the song; "Solo que me faltas" was removed so I looked up on the DVD page and Sena's concert has indeed a "Yes" on the Cut box, so are those cuts Audio cuts of songs what Zuka couldn't receive the rights or use? or there are video cuts too?

If you check the actual show page on the TakaWiki, the scenes which are cut or have the music replaced are listed in more detail in italics (under the staff section, above the cast section).

For example, "A Bientot":

Cuts are made when the company can't secure the rights to include a song on a recording (it seems much easier to receive live-performance rights). It depends on the particular DVD - for recent ones, the modus operandi seems to be to include the scene but replace music with another melody (e.g. one of the opening scenes of Zorro), but sometimes, especially in revues, whole scenes are missing or moved to the end, like in Takarazuka Dream Kingdom.
