Comment on ROCKSMITH 2014 LEAVING STORES - Ubisoft
Rentlar@lemmy.ca 1 year agoYou’re probably correct, they’ve already delisted some DLC songs due to license expiry…
But if they are or will be relicensing many of the songs for their subscription service Rocksmith+, why couldn’t they use those same licenses to keep distributing Rocksmith 2014 and its DLC in stores? Unfortunately I’m not too thorough with music licensing.

My guess is the record companies refused to renew the perpetual license for a cost that Ubi could justify in order to keep the one time purchase model. Everyone wants subscription model from the top to the bottom.
