Although wii are also out $150, thanks to Rock Band. Although if you have the ability to create a personalized character (ala XBox version) then I haven't noticed it (either in the rules or menus). Is that an unlock-able? Don't know.
Sometime soon someone is going to make a video game that teachs actual instruments and makes it fun. (I've seen videogames that do just that, but they were poorly executed). Arguably Rock Band does just that for the drums (It sure looks like the same skill set to me, apart from reading music, but I'm not a drummer ...). Until then we'll always have Sousaphone Hero.

Wii can get new songs via song packs via a disc you purchase somewhere.
As far as I know, Wii cannot play over the internet.
