DLCQP now supports RBN songs, it will be updated automatically every day. You can do ratings/reviews/etc on them just like any other songs.
They're in a separate tab on your Songs / profile pages. Also, player searches can now be narrowed to just RBN compatibility or just regular DLC compatibility.
A side effect of this new organization is that Imports are also completely separated on profiles now. For instance, if you have all the Rock Band imports and your profile previously said you had 500 songs, it will now say you have 380 songs / 120 imports.
As with any major change be sure to let me know if anything goes wrong, I have a full backup of all files and information, so if you lose anything due to unforeseen bugs I can restore it.

Today Xbox 360 players received a patch for Rock Band 2, and the Rock Band Network Music Store is officially open. The store is opening with 105 songs that span a multitude of genres. For a list of all the songs available today, go here: http://www.rockband.com/zine/rbn-tracks-day-one
For those that don't know, the RBN Music Store is a system designed to make it easier for bands to get their music in the game, basically bands create their own songs and once it's approved it goes into the store. This means there'll be tons more music available from many more artists, it's the evolutionary "next step" in DLC.
It's currently only available to Xbox 360 users. It's been told that PS3 and Wii users will get select songs from the stores in about a month.
Interestingly, with the RBN store you have the choice of purchasing the full song or downloading a "demo", which I think is really awesome and makes the store even more accessible to prospective buyers.
Anyway, this came sooner than I expected so DLCQP is not yet equipped to handle RBN songs, but I hope to incorporate full support for it this weekend. You'll be able to post videos and write reviews on these songs just like any other songs.
Congrats to Harmonix for revolutionizing music games yet another time.
P.S. Just to clear up any confusion, this is not anything like GHTunes. This is for actual bands to make their songs that they own available to download alongside the limited weekly DLC. It goes through an approval process, it's professional quality, you can play it online with friends just like regular DLC.
Guitar Hero: March 2010 DLC (Blink 182, OK Go, Flogging Molly, 80s!)
Quote:
Leading the charge on March 4, pop-punk trio blink-182 returns to Guitar Hero with a track pack featuring three of their biggest hits that helped shape the development of the pop-punk music genre. The blink-182 track pack features "First Date," the second single from Take Off Your Pants And Jacket, as well as mega-hit "All The Small Things" and the slow-paced, serious track "Adam's Song," both from the band's 1999 multi-platinum album Enema Of The State.
Grammy award winning band OK Go smashes onto the scene March 11 with "Here It Goes Again" and "Do What You Want" from their 2005 release Oh No. Longtime OK Go fanatics will also be thrilled to rock out to "Get Over It," the first single off of the band's 2002 self-titled debut album.
Living room legends can continue their St. Patrick's Day celebration as they download the Flogging Molly track pack on March 18. The three Irish-inspired favorites from the Celtic punk rockers will have fans jamming all night long to "Requiem For A Dying Song" and "(No More) Paddy's Lament" from the band's 2008 album Float and "The Seven Deadly Sins" from their 2004 release Within a Mile of Home.
The 80's return on March 25 with some of the music that made the decade famous, including the title glam metal anthem "Girls, Girls, Girls" off of Motley Crue's 1987 album, The Go-Go's biggest hit, "We Got The Beat," off of their debut album Beauty And The Beat, and Night Ranger's milestone power ballad "Sister Christian."
