lol sorry to be a pill but I think i'll just wait the last two hours of work and read it at home. The web-filters here are insanely strict.

MTV Games has announced that Rock Band players have purchased more than 2.5 million downloadable game levels since the game's November 20, 2007 launch, a player base that, according to NPD figures, has broken a million through December across both the Xbox 360 and PS3.

The latest NPD figures, quoted in a release from Microsoft, show that Rock Band has sold 463,000 units for the Xbox 360 and 174,000 units for the PS3. This is in addition to the total 382,000 units across both platforms sold in November. No figures for the PS2 version of the game have yet been made publicly available, though that version has no support for DLC.

Among the total player base, MTV says that the Metallica download pack, featuring the tracks "Ride The Lightning," "Blackened" and "And Justice For All," is currently the top-selling download. MTV says it will continue to release downloadable music levels weekly through 2008 through song packs, albums and individual tracks, with pricing varying from 80 to 240 Microsoft points.

MTVN Music Group/Logo Films president Van Toffler commented, "Our goal with Rock Band was to create an entirely new way for people to interact with the music they love. The incredible response to the downloadable content we've released to date motivates us even more to establish this platform as a way for people to discover new, up and coming artists through the game - in addition to delivering great game play experiences set to the music of mega-artists."

this better?

My work has rather aggressive web filters as well. I suspect that this sight will be blocked eventually.

i would imagine that, that goes by meta-tags and banners no?

MTV has just announced that they plan to release stand alone expansion packs for those who do not have internet access.

MTV has told Reuters that once full albums start hitting and more and more artists are brought onboard, they'll be releasing standalone expansions. MTVN's Van Toffler:

We are talking to tons of bands, from indie to the most established ... to release not necessarily their entire catalog, but maybe some of their classic albums and do special packages around that.
