Good news, hot off the stove from Sony: According to the official PlayStation blog, upcoming music games Rock Band 2, Guitar Hero World Tour, Rock Revolution and Singstar will be all be able to switch around instrument and microphone peripherals at will! Can you imagine the back-room negotiations that must have taken place to make that a reality?
Sony also says they're working on the bringing the same level of interoperability to older music games:
"We’re still working hard to ensure compatibility between the Guitar Hero and Rock Band titles currently on the market, and we hope to have an announcement on that shortly."

Hell of a job
Who the hell knows?
ToastyOe: A nice person on the Internet? Who would've thought! I hope that quote mentioned in this article means that RB will support the GH3 controller for PS3 eventually.
LOAGEEKS: Sony's been wanting to do this for a while. They've had the ability to patch the system, but wouldn't put it out due to Activision having a hissy fit about it. ...Well, I mean that's pretty much it. I don't know all of the details.
Lets rock!!!
I prefer the microphone of SingStar (especially the wireless ones), the drums of GH: WT (from the look of it), and (contrary to what other people like) the Guitar of Rock Band.
