Hi @ramatu ,
An iCloud account uses an Apple ID for identification. See this article for reference -
Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions
Likewise, the iTunes store uses an Apple ID for purchases. It does not have to be the same Apple ID that you use for your iCloud account. See this article -
Using your Apple ID for Apple services
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
