Are they the same thing? If I make one, I'll already have the other? Or are they different?

Not sure what you are saying here, but your Apple ID is your email address.

An Apple ID is an Account with Apple (using an email address as the username) that can be used with a variety of services:

- iTunes Store
- MobileMe (an address ending in .me or .mac)
- Apple Developer Connection
- Apple Support (including discussion forums)
- Apple Store (online)

If you made an account for iTunes, it can be used with these other services.
