Public Beta Release Date?

When peer reviewing, you cannot play the song in quickplay or online with friends (you can play locally with friends though). You can only play the song in audition mode, and after you leave audition mode, the song is no longer on your xbox. You download song packages to your computer, and launch them to your xbox through the Magma tool. I'm pretty sure you can only launch one song at a time, which means it's not as convenient as quickplay if you intend to play multiple songs one after the other.

Basically, it would just be easiest to wait until the RBN store launches later this year, so you can buy whatever songs you want and you get to keep them all, just like regular DLC. You don't want to spend the $160 for Reaper and Creator's Club if you're not going to author tracks, and to author tracks you need the masters.

Perhaps not, but there are those that may want to peer review only (and hence the $99 Creator's Club fee without the need to have Reaper), and RBN will need the peer reviewers for this whole venture to be a success.

I wonder if, here in Las Vegas, we'll get it a lot later... I mean, our seasons are like:

Winter: December 1st - December 31st
Summer: January 1st - November 30th

I don't wanna wait until December!

dont be silly! now, i live in Henderson, but the weather isnt that different

Winter: December 1st - December 31st
Spring: January 1st - January 17th
Summer: January 18th - November 17th
Fall: November 18th - November 30th

sheesh, dont exagerate!

I really hope it launches soon... Peer review will be fun. Just because I know people working on things and would like to just see what they've done.

Its worth the $99.

Will you download the songs from within RB? or will they be in the marketplace?

[HeyRiles]

It is going to have a separate Music Store within RB2

[Ferocious Q]

I really want to test out the charting software, but I don't want to buy XNA membership just yet. Is this possible or am I stupid?

[overdriveguitarman]

Is it possible to get a membership right now?

How?

XNA Creator's Club Membership

Since RBN is still in closed beta you may want to wait and get your membership when the beta goes public (unless you are interested in more than just RBN).
