Uh oh. The first DLC for DJ Hero is hitting today, but it’s not the tracks that are going to make headlines, it’s how much they cost. 50 Cent (featuring Mary J. Blige) mixed with Queen’s “Radio Ga Ga” and Gorrilaz’ “Dare” mixed with “Can’t Truss It” by Public Enemy is available now as a 2 pack for the price of $5.99(480MS Points). That’s one dollar more per track than Guitar Hero or Rock Band DLC. The problem is the licensing fees of mashing together two songs and the work that goes into making the remix.
IGN has an interview up with DJ Hero’s developer that maybe you should read before deciding you are going to start or sign any Internet petitions.
