Purchases made here vs iTunes

Ok, there's really no appropriate forum for me to post this in so I figured this was the second best place. As you can tell by the topic I have a question about purchases made here and those made on iTunes.

Do I have to purchase manga IN iTunes in order to read it on an iPad or can the issues/volumes be purchased here and then transferred to ITunes? As far as I can tell there's no real way to do that yet is there?

I'm asking because I really like the way the website is set up and I'd rather purchase volumes here on the site and also because even though I know I can always just log in through the net on any device, an app just makes it easier to read.

Yes, your purchases can be read across our apps/site. As you know, VIZ Manga has readers in our iPhone app, our iPad app and on our website: vizmanga.com. To make sure they are synced up, just login in with your VIZ Manga username. In your case, you paid for manga on our website. To view your purchased manga in one of our apps: just download the app, click on the Settings tab, and sign in using your VIZ username/password. Once you do that, all manga you purchased through the website will be viewable on iPhone/iPod/iPad. Make sense?

Is there a way to pay for the subscription (weekly or yearly) through the Viz Manga app? Or through iTunes directly?

You can purchase manga on your computer or on your device (via iTunes), either way works. Though I prefer in-app purchases because it's easier

Is there a way to pay for the subscription though through the app? I can't seem to find a way to do it and I'm just wondering if I've not looked in the right places or just missing it. If not, I'll just have to buy the volumes.

Where on the app can I do that?
