    The pack is $40, a little rich for my tastes. As for someone who owns 3 AC/DC albums from back in the day though, they had more hits and longevity than I realized.

    I wish you could buy them ala carte, there are 5 or 6 I'd really like to have. I don't play RB enough anymore though to justify $40 for the whole pack.

    all DLC that i've seen, you can buy songs individually or the whole song pack... wouldn't think this would be any different

    I know, you wouldn't think so, but from every account I've read, it is.

    Too bad, I'm gonna pass if that's the case.

    Upon further review, it appears that AC/DC is ONLY available on Disc at Walmart. It's an expansion pack/game that retails for $40 and comes with a code that will allow you to import the songs on your HD (so you won't have to switch disks when you play it.)

    Yeah, it's a disc that you register and get a code which generates a certificate on your machine. The same disc/code can't be re-used, so you have to buy the whole thing and can't just pass it around to other friends.

    That said, it's a fairly good set of songs - if you want 10 of them, and who wouldn't LOVE to play at least 10 of those, that's not completely ridiculous pricing. I'll likely get it, but then I'm coocoo for RB.

    I'd pay $40+ for Led Zep, the Beatles, or Pink Floyd. Unfortunately I'm going to sit out AC/DC, imo it should be $10 cheaper.
