This post is fundamentally incorrect for a number of reasons.
First of all, even supposing Rockstar had the capacity to put the DLC on both consoles, there is not a chance that the PS3 with a smaller game userbase and smaller online culture would have sold anywhere near the amount of copies of DLC the Xbox 360 has.
Second of all, the DLC only EXISTS because Microsoft paid for it at a time when Take Two DESPERATELY needed money to get GTAIV finished. It's perfectly feasable that the game itself wouldn't exist were it not for Microsoft's generous outlay.
