Just saw this, you posted in the wrong forum for this question, not a lot of people are interested in creating their own User Real Tracks. This question should be in the Band in a Box for Mac forum or maybe Tech SOS.

The problem is Real Books all have melodies and those are copyrighted. A commercial music company such as PGMusic would have to pay a royalty for EVERY SINGLE SONG in EACH Real Book PER CUSTOMER. That's about 1500 songs. Even at a dollar or two apiece, you can see that math won't work for anybody. Many years ago there were a few websites that hosted the Real Books as Biab songs including melodies but they were all forced to take them down due to cease and desist orders sent out by rights holders which are mostly the big studios like Sony or Universal. They bought most of those songs from the original artists or their estates.

iReal Pro is a useful app that only costs $15. They also cannot include melodies but users have posted pretty much all the Real Book songs as chord charts. They're not in Biab song format, just charts on your phone or tablet using a basic synth and style for backing but they're decent enough for practicing along with. If you want to use all the Biab functions to create backing tracks, then you have to load them in yourself.
