So I guess we can all agree that GTA V has one of the worst licensed soundtracks of the series (if not the worst).

Edit: I'm not saying that it's bad, there are some good tracks. I'm saying that it is the worst of the series, and it could've been much better.
The punk station is alright, an improvement over the one from IV. But honestly, you hear those 12, 2-minute tracks over and over again, it gets a bit stale. And seriously, they could've gotten a better Black Flag song than "My War". I guess they just went for the title track. I love how they got Keith Morris to DJ.
The "rock" station, ugh. Half of those songs I don't consider "rock". Listen Rockstar, "Edge of Seventeen" by Stevie Nicks is, in my opinion, the perfect song ever used in a GTA game, however "I Can't Wait" is... what... is... it... it's not rock. I would've been content with any Fleetwood Mac song, or even Stand Back would've been okay. "Hollywood Nights", in the vein of "New York Groove" used in IV... of course this song had to be put in here. I don't like it. And of course another Bob Seger song is in the mix. I mean at least "Her Strut" (from IV) was awesome. "Baker Street".... okay. "Big Log"... okay, and I'm surprised R* was able to get a Robert Plant song for the game. "Dirty White Boy"... I remember seeing this song in a list of "best motorcycle riding songs" (when I was looking for Muffler FM tracks). It's an alright song. "Heartbeat"... no. "Higher Love"... meh. "I Don't Care Anymore"... strange addition, not too bad, for some reason this song was played on the local rock station today. I would've liked a Genesis song instead, though. Like I'm talking Peter Gabriel Genesis, you know what I'm sayin'. "I Wouldn't Want to Be Like You"... no. "If You Leave Me Now"... I have mixed feelings for this song, it's a nice song to have, honestly a better Chicago song (and an actual rock song by the band) could've been used, but meh. Probably should've been on the pop station... maybe. "I'm Free (Heaven Helps the Man)"... holy mother, we're talking about Kenny friggin' Loggins, here, you know... "Danger Zone" and "Footloose" Kenny Loggins. What the hell, Rockstar. "Lonely is the Night"... one of the better songs in the mix, good choice. Would've chosen "The Stroke" (too bad Eminem mutilated that song). "Ogden's Nut Gone Flake"... the song was used in the trailer, so of course it has to be in the station. But shiiiiit it's less than 2 minutes long, and Kenny's opening and closing speeches are within 20 seconds of each other! "Photograph"... I'm fed up with Def Leppard, especially this song. At least it wasn't "Love Bites" (which isn't actual rock), but if they were gonna put this band in here, then I would've liked a different one. "Radio Ga Ga"... I didn't like this song the first (and only) time I heard it. It's alright, but honestly................ "Rain" by The Cult.... when I first saw the list, I swear I had read "Fire Woman" by The Cult. Now obviously this meant that I wish "Fire Woman" was used instead, a much better song. "Rock'n Me"... I hate that opening riff. That's my only gripe. "Saturday Night's Alright".... I don't care for this song (honestly it's better than "Street Kids" from IV). "The Breakup Song"... meh. "Too Late For Goodbyes"...by Julian Lennon... what? It's all on our minds, everyone's thinking it. The only reason it's on here is cause of his daddy. "What a Fool Believes"... good.
