Rock Band DL Content too much $$$$

the songs that are available to download and purchase for rockband cost way too much in my opinion. I would never consider payin 1.99 for a song when you can purchase a song in real life for $1. If they made them considerable cheaper I think you'd see a lot more people downloading new songs. I think the songs should be really cheap maybe .25-.50 per in order to get a lot more downloads. If they were that cheap I'd probably download all of them instead I'll never download a single one. Others opinions are appreciated.

I don't know why people think everything should be free. They need to license these songs, build 4 difficulty levels for 4 instruments and pay MS, MTV, Harmonix, etc...

25 to 50 cents would mean MTV would be losing money on these songs and probably a lot.

agree, I think the price is just about right, sure I'd love it free like everyone else but please...

get a job and stop complaining, or how about this... don't buy it if you don't like it, no one is forcing you.

theres a difference between buying a song and buying a rock band song

Song = .99

Song+Guitar note chart+drum note chart+bass note chart+vocal note chart = 1.99

id say its a pretty good deal

Exactly.

I mean, it's not like iTunes where you just download the song, listen to it, and you're done, you're actually getting to play the song on Rock Band across 4 difficulty levels and several instruments. There is actual work that goes into getting these songs on there and ready to be played, not to mention Microsoft's fee, profit, licensing costs, etc. It's not like you're just downloading the song to listen to it, you play it and interact with it, and in order to do this, it costs money and it takes work.

It's pretty simple, really.
