Music industry gets more paranoid

The Music Discussion forum has replaced the old Lyrics and Samples forum and the Live Scene and Music Reviews forum. This forum is used to discuss anything relating to Music including Orbital topics, the live scene including Orbital gigs past, present and future. This section is an ideal place to post your live gigs reviews and album / single reviews. This forum can also be used to discuss Orbital lyrics and samples. The website will never disclose or confirm samples for legal reasons - so this is the next best thing.

Don't all the tabs have "this is the writer's interpretation of the song and may be inaccurate. This file is not to be used for commercial gain" and whatnot at the top anyway? That seems a bit silly.

Mmmm, I was thinking about this earlier, and I realised I've used Google to find out the name of a song I only know by its chorus before.

they might hassle a few people, but honestly, what can they do? shut down the internet?

Smacks of desperation of someone trying to cover his arse for not producing the results the industry execs expected... :lol:

That's unacceptable. I use tab sites to help learn guitar and to say that it is depriving musicians of a living is preposterous - a good 50% of the tabs on tab sites cannot be found in music books anyway.
