Dunno, but thanks for posting that link. That's the best price I've seen so far for two official controllers, so I bout a set too. If I find any append discs for sale, I'll let you know.

I'd rather go with a IIDX controller. You can play both 5 and 7 key with those, and they dont look as stupid.
Though, the IIDX controllers are about.. $100 so yeah...

Ah, yes, the European Beatmania controllers. The turntables are silky smooth, though the buttons are a touch too stiff for my liking. It makes it difficult to play the insanely hard songs. For the beginning stuff, it shouldn't be a big deal, though.
And regarding official Guitar Freaks controllers, frankly if you have small hands, you're better off without them. Use control setting C and hold a Dual Shock backwards. It's just like the arcade controller but at 10% the size. I have very little difficulty with that method, though my left hand can cramp up a bit if I play too long. Heh.

I got them 3 days after I ordered them and they rock .But like you said the buttons are stiff as shit .Its kinda hard on songs like the metal gear song
