Heading over to the official iTunes website one of our eagle-eyed readers noticed Apple is now offering an album that is inspired by the Rock Band track list for download to your iPod (which will make a great track list for Harmonix's iPod game Phase).

I suppose one could fight the system on this but.... A big part of me thinks that if these songs should actually sell well and bands begin to see that Rock Band is a money maker for them, then you just might see a lot more content for Rock Band which would be a win-win for consumers in the end.

Rock Band sure has a lot of crappy music... Now a Guitar Hero album... well, that would be something. Oh wait...

I'm usually the first to stand behind an Apple decision, but this is nothing if not silly.
They offer full albums for less than if you bought each track separately...so I don't know WHAT the hell is going on. Perhaps someone forgot to flip the "pay less" switch?

Oh, that's actually an internal issue. For ease of use I've put the gallery within the post and inside the actual post the images work fine. We're trying to figure it out, apologies.

Rock Band has a lot of great tracks, but I'm so much more of a full album person as it is. I don't buy compilations like this in general, let alone one that costs half of what the full game package does lol
I'd rather pay another $1 (or whatever it is) on new songs to play in the game, honestly.

how is that a price gouge? they may discount albums, but this is basically an itunes essential, which don't get discounted. it was made for convenience, not value

Hardly gouging, as 99c is the going rate for a song. It would be gouging if they were charging triple specifically for Rock Band tracks, but that clearly isn't the case.
