special aurora package: the package has customized illustration jackets (you can change the image you want the "box" to have, apparently 6 different images)

What is an illustration jacket, exactly? Does it just mean the box art?

it's a removable card. the ltd edition will come with a number of different cards you can swap to have a different front cover.

Thanks. Odd that it's not pre-orderable at CD Japan (my preferred retailer) yet, when it is at Amazon.

Cut ally, I asked CD Japan about it, and they just replied that they inquired with the publisher and were told that Amazon purchased the exclusive rights, so they won't be able to stock it.

My message to them yesterday was:

"The original soundtrack for Bravely Second: End Layer is available for pre-order on Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.jp/s/ref=nb_sb_...bravely+second), so shouldn't it be available for pre-order on CD Japan too? I'd like to pre-order it before my reward points expire on April 13."

Their response last night was:

"Hello.

Thank you for contacting CDJapan.

We inquired the publisher about this.

They said that Amazon obtained the exclusive right to sell them (of course, as a part of marketing to try to promote themselves by forcing everyone to order from them).

So, it will be impossible for us to obtain them, because we know as a matter of fact that Amazon will never be interested in supplying such products to any other shop.

Sincerely,
Toshi Makiya

I sent them another message asking how this could be. Maybe we should all complain to Amazon and Square Enix Music?

CD Japan is lying. The Soundtrack is already available to preorder at other shops. A few examples:

I usually order import cds from yesasia (they don't have this one listed yet). HMV accepts international orders as well.

It's already available on neowing, so it should be on cdjapan in a few days. No idea why they would say that.

Well, CD Japan now has the Great Distance CD, so we'll see. I sent them a message the other night questioning their statement and pointing out it was available in other stores that they haven't replied to yet (but it sometimes takes them a couple days).

Yes, I got another message from them overnight:

"Dear Customer,

Thank you for your inquiry and we are glad to inform you we uploaded on
our website the CD that you were looking for.

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/SQEX-10494

Sincerely

So it's weird that they initially said that thing about Amazon purchasing the exclusive rights. Someone over there must have gotten crossed wires.
