JAL to Tokyo iTunes - Japan
 

Is there any way for me, being in the US, to buy this EP from iTunes Japan? Sorry if this is old but I want these tracks.

Thanks so much!

Indeed, you can buy cards here. If you cant wait for the card to be delivered they will fax you/send you a scan/email you the code so that you can use the Japanese store right away. They take credit cards (Mastercard, Visa, Discover or AMEX) so its quite simple.

Anyone know anything new about this being made available through underworldlive.com as was mentioned way back?

Not that I know. We wanted to have it as cd-single ofcourse, much talk about that.

Are you sure this will still work? I tried this a month ago or so. In order to use a gift card during checkout, you have to first create an iTunes account on the Japan iTunes Music Store. In order to create an iTunes account, you need to have a Japanese credit card. So you're back to square one.

You can't use an iTunes account you've created in the U.S. or elsewhere either. You need to create one specifically on the Japan iTunes Store. And, again, I can't find any way to do that without a Japanese credit card.

I assume the card takes the place of the credit card. However, I have not yet tried the process. My concern now is will an song purchased through Japanese iTunes play on the US iTunes? I know the encryption is tied in to a specific email address (or at least I believe it is.) Has anyone actually purchases these yet? If so, did they play in non-Japanese iTunes?

Re: JAL to Tokyo iTunes - Japan
 

No, it doesn't. You can try it. AFAICT, you need an actual Japanese credit card to create the account.

Yes. There is only one iTunes program. There is no Japanese iTunes and no U.S. iTunes. There is a Japanese iTunes Music Store and a U.S. iTunes Music Store. But those are just 2 different Store portals, accessed through the same iTunes program. The tracks will still play, independent of which portal they were purchased from.
Yes, that is correct. But it will play fine, as long as you authorize your computer for that specific e-mail address (aka Apple ID, i.e. the Apple ID you created specifically for the Japanese iTunes Music Store, distinct from any other Apple ID's you might have for other countries' iTunes Music Stores).
