Earlier this month, Rockstar announced that a number of licensed songs from the radio stations of GTA IV & Episodes From Liberty City were going to be removed in a new update, due to the 10-year licensing agreement on them expiring.
The update has now gone live, and over 50 tracks have been removed, with Vladivostok FM being hit the most. However, Rockstar has attempted to address this by updating the station with a number of replacement songs.
Below you find the full list of the removed tracks from the soundtrack of Grand Theft Auto IV, as well as the EFLC, The Lost and Damned (TLAD) & The Ballad of Gay Tony (TBOGT):
