Article by David Konow.

Guitar Hero III and Rock Band are bona fide hits with blockbuster sales. But the cultural phenomena and positive effect on the music business may be even more impressive. Here's a look at how both games are changing the business of gaming and music.

Ah yes Metallic :sarcasm:.

Lars will no doubt bitch to his record company and band mates about this one.

I still have Camp Chaos shirts from when Metallica went after Napster...

Now we can hear them gripe about the piracy on two fronts... :cry:

Hmm, so Gibson is happily trying to bite the hand that feeds it. Brilliant.

Seriously, if they want a piece of the action then they should put a coupon or rebate or something in every box sold for a discount on a real guitar. I would imagine that they would get more than a few takers on the offer and profit significantly.
