WARNING

If you plan on purchasing any of the official albums contained within these pages, do so at your own risk. Almost all offers for rare soundtracks and other Chrono material are Chinese bootlegs, meaning they are cheaply copied from the real thing and passed off as a legitimate product, which additionally throws the quality of their bootlegs into question. Importing these rip-offs are also a federal offense in the United States and other countries that have signed the Berne Convention. Buying unofficial goods also shorts the parent, legitimate company of money, and hurts sales. You can usually spot the differences between the real thing and a bootleg by following a few rules, expertly provided over at The Jazz Messengers, a Cowboy Bebop website.

1. Don't buy from SonMay or EverAnime

SonMay and EverAnime are the top bootleggers of CDs in the world. Examples of their trade can be found through labels on their products; for instance, if you're considering buying a Chrono Trigger OSV that is marked with a large SM logo, it is SonMay, and thus a bootleg.

Examples of company logos:

2. Don't buy cheap CDs.

As I've found out, buying the original product often means importing it from Japan; shipping costs usually run above ten dollars. The real Japanese releases aren't cheap, either, and if you see several Chrono products being auctioned for $15, they are almost surely bootlegs.

3. Don't buy from Hong Kong or Taiwan.

Hong Kong and Taiwan are the regional capitals of bootlegging, and products shipped from these locations are almost, without a doubt, bootlegs.

Lastly, DigiCube was the publisher of most Square soundtracks. If a catalogue number reads SSCX-10###, it is an authentic DigiCube production.

Keep these in mind as you search for Chrono products. If you're genuinely interested in learning more, an excellent FAQ exists here.
