TSUTAYA.com Co., Ltd.

In the future, we plan to gradually expand support to Android devices from not only NTT Docomo, but also au and SoftBank.

"TSUTAYA Premier" launched in July 2009 as the first multi-digital content distribution site on the official websites of the three major carriers: NTT Docomo, au, and SoftBank.

To date, it has approximately 500,000 registered members.

With the release of the Android application "TSUTAYA Premier," we are now able to offer the service to Android users who are using "TSUTAYA Premier" for the first time, as well as to existing users who have switched to a smartphone and continue to use the service. At launch, the Android application "TSUTAYA Premier" will offer access to approximately 50,000 songs, as well as entertainment news, decorative emojis, and fortune-telling content.
