FFXIV Music: Is Blu-Ray the only way?

[Ganonphile]

Hey there, as the title suggests, I'm looking to purchase the music for FFXIV. All of it. I wants it.

But I don't have a Blu-Ray player.

Am I stuck purchasing from ITunes, or can I purchase directly from Square Enix and download the music from there site?

If you buy the soundtrack and can get temporary access to a blu-ray player (like say, a PS3 or PS4), it can generate a temp URL you can use the download MP3s of the soundtrack.
Doing that or iTunes is pretty much the only way.

Ah, I didn't know the Playstation was capable of that. Thanks!

Query, is the Xbox One capable of this too? Since that has a blu-ray player and is the only blu-ray device I have.

It should. The OST's are just standard Bluray movies really with some additional features.

It is, and you can download the mp3 versions of the songs (plus a couple secret tracks not playable via the blu-ray player) either through your home network or by connecting an external hard drive.

Well, I tried copying the mp3's using the Xbox One yesterday, and while the OST did seemingly set up a server to connect to, I couldn't connect to it from my PC.

I then tried the PS4, and that one worked just fine. The difference is that the PS4 had a non-standard port (9999) to connect to, the Xbox One didn't mention any specific port. Might be you have to connect to port 9999 on the Xbox One as well.

Hello,

I know that this topic is old but I’m currently having trouble downloading music via Xbox One, has anyone already succeeded?
