Okay, HUGE NEWS UPDATE TODAY. They probably got sick of the constant questions. No doubt they won't stop, but I appreciate this a lot.

This talks about RB3, they say it SHOULD be in the big ol' December 8th update! 15 bucks, though? Damn, that's a bit of a price hike. It was $5 for RB1, 2, and the rest were free. I don't care, still buying that export as soon as it's available.
EDIT: Okay, apparently RB2 and GD were $10 each. I guess I don't remember lol
They also talk about the other exports, but no real date. Hopefully they'll have news of that soon or they'll randomly become available! Blitz and Green Day came in out of nowhere, so maybe we'll see that happen for those other exports as well!
Interesting tidbit about RBN. It isn't a flat-out "no" but just a "we will worry about that later" which makes me a bit hopeful.
Honestly, I don't see them upgrading them the same way they did the old DLC. After all, the RBN community ballooned like crazy and they surpassed the song-count of official DLC by a lot. I can only see them doing two things. This is assuming they do anything at all;
-Port songs over, but simply that. No upgrades, no changes.
-Get the Harmonies Project team to provide Harmony Vocals for those songs as well.
I'd be fine with either of these. While some of the songs would be great in Harmony, I'm more in it for the Guitar and Drum parts anyway.
So I played a bit of Pro drums. Works pretty damn good, except the blue cymbal. That, of course, could just be an issue with the cymbal itself. I'm gonna try cleaning it up, looking up tricks to stop the random double-taps, or even use one of my spare cymbals (had one set, some drunk asshole fell on my drumset at a part once and mostly broke except for like two cymbals. Ahh, early college times!) to replace it. We'll see, but for the most part it works fine!
