This. I'll forever be mad at Rockstar for removing songs from their games, because their licenses expired. But it's cheaper to just "update" the game so they can continue selling it without the songs, instead of renewing contracts. Oh, you bought the game before that? Too bad, update to continue playing

I've heard that this happened with Scrubs (and possibly other TV shows) leading to the original box set of DVDs having different songs playing in the background than the streaming versions.
