How to Put New Songs on Guitar Hero 3 for PS3

"Guiter Hero III: Legends of Rock" is the first entry in the wildly popular "Guitar Hero" series to appear on the PlayStation 3 (PS3) video game and media entertainment console. The game offers rhythm-action gameplay in which players are challenged to replay classic rock songs using a plastic controller resembling a guitar. One feature of the game's PS3 incarnation is the ability to download and add extra songs to the game in the form of DLC (downloadable content) from the PlayStation Store.
