Mark My Words

by Chris Morley on Jan.15, 2009, under Industry Analysis

Music industry executives are right now packaging up new pop acts with a keen focus on downloadable-content for music games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero.  Songs cost twice as much to download, and piracy is impossible.  It’s the RIAA’s digital dream…so for the next year listen to those top 40 pop/rock hits that are manufactured by big record companies and think about how they would play out in Rock Band and Guitar Hero.  Think about the complexity of the guitars, bass, drums, and vocals.  I think you’ll agree with me.

    Sadly, Piracy is always possible. Most songs released as "downloadable content" to the rhythm games have usually already been posted as a custom song file on scorehero.

    Too much work for me... I can't even beat the songs that come with those games. Seriously my fingers hurt something serious on even the first "hard" song.
