Import Rock Band tracks into Rock Band 2!

chautemoc | September 05, 2008 | Press Release | XBOX 360 
Harmonix Music Systems and MTV Games have announced an "export disc" update to the Xbox 360 edition of Rock Band. This will effectively allow gamers to use all the tracks from the original game in the sequel, when it's released September 14.
As of September 4th, the title update will add an “export disc” tab under the extras option in the Rock Band menus, allowing owners of the original Rock Band to expand their Rock Band 2 library to include 55 tracks from the original Rock Band track list for the nominal fee of $4.99 (400 Microsoft Points). In addition, this patch is required for all future downloadable content releases for Rock Band. Previously purchased DLC will not be affected.

The selection of 55 exportable Rock Band tracks joins the weekly downloadable content list of over 200 songs to date and Rock Band 2’s forthcoming setlist of over 100 songs adding to the ever expanding Rock Band Music Library. By the end of 2008, Harmonix has promised an unprecedented 500 songs will be available for the Rock Band platform. For a complete list of Rock Band songs available for purchase and download to date, please go to http://www.rockband.com/dlc.

    So wait. Lets see if I get this right;

    • Rock Band 1 = £180
    • Rock Band 2 = £180 or £50 if you have the instruments.


    ... And then they're charging you to transfer the songs ?

    Yeah, it's only $5 but fthats.
