I have a bunch of Japanese CDs and none of them have CD-Text. Those are 
not Sony release, though, and I expect discs released by Sony to come 
with CD-Text in MS-JIS encoding.

So lacking a disc with CD-Text, I created my own in order to test MS-JIS 
encoding support in fre:ac. I used a test version of HOFA 
CD-Burn.DDP.Master for this. The only authoring software I could find 
that supports Japanese CD-Text. I don't have that disc anymore, so 
cannot provide a dump, but maybe you can do the same and create your own 
test disc with this tool.

Best,
Robert
