The Rock Band 3 disc soundtrack contains 83 of the best bands from around the world, including bands that have never appeared in a music game, as well as support for existing Rock Band tracks (Rock Band and Rock Band 2 discs, downloaded songs, track packs, AC/DC Live: Rock Band Track Pack, LEGO Rock Band and Green Day: Rock Band).

Additionally, Rock Band 3 will give players immediate access to a music library approaching 2,000 songs by launch, with new content added regularly. Rock Band’s gigantic music selection dwarfs that of any other music game on the market.

Harmonix confirmed that in light of Bon Jovi's upcoming Greatest Hits compilation album, Rock Band 3 will be seeing a post launch DLC combining some of the best and most requested tracks of the rock band.

Harmonix issued the following statement:

Yep, Bon Jovi will be returning as DLC post RB3 launch! Confirmed!

Don't expect a huge multi disc album release though, as the Surgeon General has determined that anything more than 12 tracks of Bon Jovi in a single pack could contain potentially dangerous levels of swoon when downloaded by women, and result in deadly amounts of "good hair envy" in men.
