In time, we hope that Sony will get plenty of songs available, so that there’s plenty for everyone’s taste. After all, at £0.99 a download, the wider range of content they have, the more people will download, and the more money the Singstore will make. Is 41 good enough for the time being? Probably not, and will probably lead to some people, like myself, feeling slightly underwhelmed by their first experience of the store.

A week after the game’s release, that number was up to 63. Maybe they’re cleverly biding their time by tempting people to buy songs that wouldn’t necessarily sell if there was a wider collection. Or maybe it’s just down to a lack of decent licensing so far.

The price was as expected, and it’s fairly reasonable. Considering you’re getting the full download, complete with the full music video and obviously the settings and features that make it work with Singstar, it’s certainly worth the money. With the game on its own retailing at half the price of most other games (assuming you’ve already got the mics), then you can double your collection of songs for the same price as buying a different game.
