Oh, oh, nevermind. Geez, when I read that I went back to the catalog page and scrolled up and down multiple times. I didn't even see that before. Whoa...
Man, this is like true discrimination against Xbox users oAo Curse you, NBGI. I'm happy for the new PS3 users but gah. Why did I buy that limited edition TT^TT

You mean apart from the fact that the X360 DLC is slightly cheaper item for item than their PS3 counterparts?

The DLC is too expensive for me to buy on the 360 version, regardless XD and besides, it's actually cheaper to buy the PS3 version than it would be to buy 360 Catalogs 01-03 in full (especially Little Match Girl. I forget if that was a LE bonus or a preorder bonus, though). Not to mention the PS3 version has 2 extra songs on top of everything included in 01-03, and there's legitimately free items in the catalogs.
Trust me, I'd buy the PS3 version in a heartbeat if I could. Though, then I wouldn't have my sole DLC Stylish Denim anymore, which would be pretty sad. Best Luxury recolor ever.

I got bored and ran the numbers (Yeah, I'm weird, when I have a little free time, I do math) and found out depending on the exchange rate, the X360 version is cheaper by the points purchasing than the PSN is via a straight yen purchase.
At the moment if I recall correctly, it's holding about a 5-7% margin although it fluctuates. Essentially, eventually (if this keeps up) if you buy 9 catalogs on PSN, you'll have 10 (and a bit) on the X360.
Little match girl was a preorder bonus, not a LE one.
There's a real bargain in the PS3 version, although you can't actually get the DLC complete items for catalog 1, 2, or 3. (So a bit of misrepresentation there.)
There's also the fact that two items are not in the X360 version (The Ghost Hands and the Big Winder) and two items are not in the PS3 version (The Pom Poms and the Anywhere Art.)
Why is anyone's guess.
For most part, the PS3 version comes off significantly better off (but that's what getting 7 months extra development time gets you) although it's not all one way, and there's still the ability to patch up the X360 version due its design via a downloadable purchase(Although unlikely).
Overmaster and Kyun! Vampire girl are arguably two of the most popular songs in the lineup, and they're both X360 only at this point in time. We're not going to see a catchup for a while, to say the least, and it would actually be somewhat amusing if they decided to go all out devisive, and make it so that some songs would stay exclusive to both. (Well, amusing for me, but I expect the im@s community to start riots if that ever happened.)

I think if you don't sit around and do math for iM@S, either you don't buy DLC or you have no plans to XD
And how is it that you can't get the complete items for 01-03? I thought they were all included in the game by default. I've even seen the shironeko accessories in it?
And yeah, I can give that the 360 has Kyun!Vampire Girl and Overmaster. Well, and L.O.B.M, not that that's as popular XD I guess I'm thinking of in-game advantages rather than DLC ones. because I can't buy them. Ohoho.
Though, when the PS3 version gets those (it's inevitable, I think) the 360 version better be getting Nanairo Botan. :1
Oh, I forgot to mention. The considerably improved on-stage camera controls in the PS3 version. You think NBGI would at least have mercy on 360-users to fix that up in a free patch? orz
