The Rock Band series of music video games supports downloadable songs for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii versions through the consoles' respective online services. Users can download songs on a track-by-track basis, with many of the tracks also offered as part of a "song pack" or complete album at a discounted rate. These packs are currently not available for the Wii. Most downloadable songs are playable within every game mode, including the Band World Tour career mode. All downloadable songs are cross-compatible between Rock Band and Rock Band 2, and select family friendly songs are playable in Lego Rock Band.[1]

The Wii version of Rock Band does not support downloadable content, but Rock Band 2 for Wii does, with DLC first made available in January 2009.[2] Songs from the back catalogue of downloadable content are released for the Wii weekly in an effort by Harmonix to provide Wii players with every previously available song.[3]
