Ubisoft can easily and cheaply put JDK songs on JDU because:
 * Let's say they don't own all rights to the covers to do with as they please because they're idiots: The songs were already licensed for worldwide distribution on worldwide JD games. They'd only have to renegotiate the rights to allow for streaming them on JDU.
 * They likely do own all rights to the covers to do with as they please since they paid for them to be made for their own use. So they don't have to renegotitate anything and just have to encode the videos and slap them onto JDU with some minor bug testing and voila, it's done.
 * The Japanese and Chinese games had songs that were negotiated for distribution in Japan and China respectively. They'd have to renegotiate the rights for every single one of those songs for worldwide distribution in order to release them on JDU. Very costly and time consuming and in the end, relatively few international players would care about them very much. Just not worth it for Ubisoft.
