Apple Planning iTunes for Japan?

According to a report in Japan's Nihon Keizai Shimbun newspaper, Apple is planning to bring its iTunes Music Store across the Pacific and target the largely untapped Japanese music market. The new iTunes store would offer 100,000 tracks - making it Japan's largest music download service. Apple recently expanded its European reach with stores tailored for 12 different countries, and the iTunes Music Store for Canada is expected to launch soon.
