Guest FDR Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I tried buying these off the japanese itunes store but it keeps booting me back to the u.s store, I wonder if "blyz Castl" is some kind of knockoff of "bnc Castl" woah, 90101-5l-l and IO as well......weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beNito Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Hummm according to the track lenghts it's not the same tracks than the limited edition one or the album.... would be great to have another different version of these tracks.... Aren't itunes tracks limited to 5 compters ? Unless you can manage to erase the protection.... By the way Rook, how did you found out about this ? Do you just randomly browse the japanes ituens store from time to time ? :wink2: thanks for the info by the way, you rook man ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rook Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 the guy from xlt said that IO is the same as on the special edition, the second track is like some remix/mashup/alternate thing, and the third track is completely new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PusillanimousRex Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 It is possible to purchase iTunes releases from a foreign store by setting up a mock account and paying with a gift voucher. I've done it in the past for the Japanese store and it worked just fine. Purchasing gift cards from eBay vendors will usually net you a detailed set of instructions on how to do this. Then, as Kcinsu said, all you need to do is burn a CD with the tracks to kill the DRM. Problem there is, if you decide to make MP3s or somesuch out of them again, you're double-compressing them, which is just plain criminal, particularly considering how poorly encoded iTunes tracks are in the first place, unless they're Plus. I'll look into this and post back with my "findings". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beNito Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Ok... I've been chating in the soulseek japanese rooms, and they sent me this link : http://www.jlist.com/SEARCH/itunes/1/ ( click ok, this is not porn) ITUNESCARD iTunes Japan Music Card This item is in stock in Japan. Weight: 200 g. $20/$38 Product type: iTunes Japan Music Card Buy Now! Save to Wishlist Apple's iTunes Music Store is incredibly popular in Japan, with hundreds of thousands of tracks of great music from Japan available for 150 or 200 yen per song. For fans of Japanese music around the world it doesn't seem possible to buy through the Japan iTMS, without a Japanese address and credit card. There is a way, however -- using the Japanese iTunes Music Card from Apple! A prepaid card that's charged with money for music purchases, this is a great way for J-POP/J-ROCK fans all over the world to get access to Japan's top-name music directly through their Mac or PCs. When you click the Add to Cart button for this product, you'll be able to choose a Music Card with the new denominations of 1500 or 3000 yen of credit on it. You can also choose to have the card sent to you normally through the mail from Japan, have the J-List staff send you a scan of your card number through email, or opt for both. Once you have your iTMS Japan code, follow these easy steps: 1. Load iTunes on your Mac or PC. If you don't have it yet, download it from Apple. 2. If you've already got an account in your home country, sign out by clicking on the Account button in the upper left hand corner, then Sign Out. 3. At the bottom of the iTunes Music Store window, choose the Japan Store. The name may appear in kanji, but it's easy to find. 4. Click the Redeem button along the right side of the iTMS, and enter the scratch-off Redeem Code printed on the back of the card when asked. 5. iTunes will show you a dialog box asking for your current account. Since we're making a new iTMS account for the Japan sture, click Create Account. 6. Follow the steps to create a new account, first agreeing to the iTunes agreement (step 1 of 3), then entering email, birthdate and verification question (step 2). Important: When signing up for an iTunes account with a pre-paid card, some customers have reported that iTMS won't let you proceed without entering a credit card. In order to bypass this, hit the "Home" button and begin the Redeem process again, and you'll see the "None" button the second time through. This is a known issue that affects Japanese users in Japan as well. 7. At step 3, where you are asked for your (Japanese) address. You can enter any address you like. Note that you must enter your name twice, once for "kanji" and once for "pronunciation" (but you can enter the same information into both fields). You can do this in English or any language that's supported by iTunes -- the ability to read Japanese is never required for the iTunes Japan Store -- so for the phonetic spelling you can just enter the same normal English characters as the other 'name' fields. Note that there is no verification performed for any of this information, so you can enter any random address you like. 8. Enjoy purchasing great music and audio content directly from Japan in the Japan iTunes Music Store! Now that you have an account tied to a prepaid card, you can get full access to the "Free iTunes Single of the Week" from Japan, and future prepaid card credit can be added to your existing account. Music from the Japanese iTunes Store is fully compatible with iTunes and iPods from any country. iTunes has no issues with maintaining multiple accounts in more than one music store. It couldn't be simpler! And best of all, you can surf and buy music from your iPhone (version 1.1.1 firmware or higher) or iPod Touch! Just make sure you're signed in to the Japan iTunes Music Store with iTunes when you sync the iPhone/iPod Touch and login data will be carried over. Note: J-List is providing this iTunes Japan Music Card as a service to J-List customers. The cards must be used in accordance with Apple's iTunes online store policies. iTunes music cards cannot be returned or exchanged for cash in any currency after purchases are processed. Offer void where prohibited. (More like this) (Direct link to this product) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
