problems purchasing songs from steam

[Torturedart]

hi just been trying to buy tighten up for rocksmith and everytime i try to buy it it tells me i dont have rocksmith on steam which i quite clearly do

so i tried going through the shop in game it took me back to steam and steam told me the same thing again grrrr

 

any solutions to this problem i really want to start learning that song

Tighten Up is DLC for Rocksmith 1, not Rocksmith 2014, and because of a Steam policy you cannot purchase it for use in RS2014 without first buying RS1.

 

To prevent users from buying the wrong DLC, Steam has a policy of not letting anyone purchase DLC content for games they do not own.  This was implemented well before RS2014 or any other game that had forward compatible DLC was ever released and despite claims that they "are working on a solution" it seems like nothing will ever happen to change it.

how ridiculous is that so i guess i will never get to play it unless i buy rs 2012 first that kinda sucks
