What happened to the old JamPack 1?

Before the SteveNote, the four JamPacks Apple sold were:

Jam Pack 1
Jam Pack 2: Remix Tools
Jam Pack 3: Rhythm Section
Jam Pack 4: Symphony Orchestra

Now, the four they sell are:

Jam Pack 1: Remix Tools
Jam Pack 2: Rhythm Section
Jam Pack 3: Symphony Orchestra
Jam Pack 4: World Music

So what happened to the original JamPack 1? Have all of those loops and instruments been rolled up into GarageBand 3's default install, or are all those loops and instruments just plain discontinued?

Note: The new packaging for the Jam Packs do not have a number associated with them any longer...they are simply:

GarageBand Jam Pack: Remix Tools
GarageBand Jam Pack: Rhythm Section
GarageBand Jam Pack: Symphony Orchestra
GarageBand Jam Pack: World Music

The first Jam Pack was simply released as GarageBand Jam Pack. It is still available, we just haven't seen it in new packaging as of yet. It is listed in the Apple Store as GarageBand Jam Pack 1, even though the packaging itself has no number on it.

JamPack 1 is now included as a standard part of GB3.


Where did you get this information from? Another poster recently said this:

I think people are thinking it was included because its no longer listed as for sale at the Apple store.

However it appears you are right. I did a clean install of Garageband 3 while my Jam Pack 1 folder was moved elsewhere and renamed, and the Garageband installer did not put any of those loops on my hard drive.

For those wanting to check, the first loop listed in the Jam Pack 1 folder is "12 String Dream 01.aif" - so you can see if you have it anywhere.
