^ I'd also like to know
I've always read that OS presses, when used with top of the line speakers, are inferior to Japanese presses (and I'm a HUGE quality-o-phile. if its inferior, i won't buy it). If that's not the case, I may purchase the OS press of this album. I even know where I can buy it; its in Pacific Mall, one of the largest asian malls in North America.

imo to me there's no difference as all this while , Taiwan presses are almost on par with what the Japan press has to offer except that the OBI for Taiwan press has a rather ugly white centre & blue coloured words in the centre but for that aspect it's ok it's something I don't mind at all

Only for Hong Kong press , the quality's slightly inferior but the upside is that the OBI they make is the same as what you get for Japan press

But for both Taiwan & Hong Kong presses , you get a Chinese translation sheet

The Hong Kong versions now a days are pretty much the same as Japanese versions but with a translation slip over the case now or thats how it was with my A CLIP BOX, it looks the same as the JP press but it just has a obi like thing that sits over the back with the translation for the hong kong press. Even the booklet was in Japanese with one of those translation slip things. But you do get what you paid for with JP press. Always feels like its good quality or for how much you pay for them anyways

All of the Japan version albums with DVDs have reinforced cases (top and bottom). It's like extra padding or something, but it's a pain to try to fit them into certain CD racks.

The quality of packaging is generally higher in Japan versions.

Does this cd have the access code thingy?
Will it be compatible with the two Japanese access codes from LOVE and again?

I'm sure A Classical will have it since my Taiwan press / CD + DVD copies of LOVE & again both came with them respectively

And I doubt it will be the same if not compatible with Japan press since the access code granted for Taiwan is issued by avex Taiwan :x

There's a possibility that it would work. I mean, there aren't any other places where the codes would work. Besides, I bought the Taiwan version of the CDL 10-11 ~do it again~ and got the code. I could access the bonus content which was the making off clip on her official Japanese Facebook site.
