How many of Rock Band's 1,000 songs do you have? photo

I mentioned this yesterday in our gift guide, but now it's official -- Harmonix and MTV have announced that Rock Band now has more than 1,000 songs available to play. That's more than 390 bands, according to the developer and publisher. 

Back in 2007 when I went to Harmonix's Boston studio to check out Rock Band, I was told they'd be releasing music as downloadable content every week. I smiled and nodded, but in the back of my head was thinking "You're full of sh*t." Two years later, I stand corrected. 

I'm a bit of a junkie myself, and just checked -- I have 711 songs (666 right before I exported the tracks from LEGO Rock Band). That's stupid, and it makes me a bit dizzy. But I'm sure some of you out there have them all. 

So tell us, how many playable Rock Band tracks do you have in your library?

226. Although there are a lot more great songs i'd like to get, i tend to only download the harder stuff because there a lot more fun to play.

Too many... I don't want to think about how much I've dropped on all my songs, but I do know that my 20GB 360 that's still kicking after some self-repairs is more than half full from Rock Band alone.

I'm not at my Xbox right now, but I'm going to hazard a guess that I'm in the 400 mark.

I have something around 450. I was once addicted to downloading everything, but then I got really tired of anything GH or RB.

Enough that I only have 335 MB of space on my HDD and still not nearly all I want.

I believe I have 874...There was a time where I'd buy every song available, but then poorness kicked in and I had to be selective. Oh well, I'll catch up eventually, when I hit the lottery or something.

I have everything up to and including September this year. After that, I became so strapped for cash that I could no longer justify the expense, as HMX seemed intent on releasing not just songs every week, but LOTS of songs every week. I did, however, pick up Lego Rock Band too.

So yeah, I figure I'm in the 900+ range.

I have RB1, RB2, The Beatles: Rock Band (and all DLC), the AC/DC pack, and every DLC song up until the start of November, when I had to tighten my budget. But I will certainly buy those songs as soon as I have the funds, plus Lego Rock Band. Also, I have 80% of the Rock Band Unplugged songs.

I have somewhere around 350. I would probably have more, but my 360 was in the pawn shop for 2-3 months due to being poor and having to choose between having a place to live and playing games.

It was a difficult choice.

Back when a friend was still around who had RB for PS3 we had like 40 songs or so. Now I do not possess a copy of RB because they haven't put out an interesting song in months. MONTHS! Maybe over a year I can't remember it's been so god damn long.

What would be awesome is if they released "Poker Face" for Rock Band, a la South Park. :D

@People saying 900 songs:

160MSP x 900(-174 on discs, assuming Lego + RB1(27840MSPworth)) = 116160MSP
116160MSP / 4000MSP (Assuming you bought in packs of 4000) = 29.04->30 cards
30 cards x $50 = $1500

$1500. Seriously?
