Thank you for this
Games disappearing forever is one of my least favorite things - the preservation of creative works is extremely important to me, and the fact that a game can be pulled over a music license seems like incredible bullshit ... Copied to Clipboard!

Wouldn't a few of these games at least still live on through retail copies?

Is American Nightmare worth it? I mean, it would basically only be an extra 50 cents tacked on to the price of the game plus soundtrack, so I kinda feel ridiculous even asking. I guess I'm mostly just curious about it.

Shame XBL doesn't have it on sale. I have the disc, but figured I'd look and see if the price was going to be low enough to be worth double dipping for convenience.

Can anyone a little more knowledgeable on the subject explain how music licensing seems to be a big problem in cases like this and GTA, but in 90% of other cases, songs can stay in games forever with no problems? Is it less the system itself and more drama between the artists and the publisher? I remember that was definitely the case with Anamanaguchi and Scott Pilgrim getting pulled at least.

Because of contracts, that's all. Company decides they want a certain song in their game, they have to pay up. Typically the longer the length of the contract, the higher the cost. They could possibly extend the contracts, but with a game like Alan Wake, I'm assuming they decided it wasn't worth it financially to keep it going.
They can always bring out a new edition later with different music, or possibly re-license it, which isn't unheard of. It's like that for anything that companies don't outright own. That's why you see licensed titles occasionally disappear from digital marketplaces, especially around January 1st. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
