Lyrics Section

People often have requests for the lyrics to songs, so I think it would be best to make a section for it. That way there will be less repeat threads about lyrics for a song and people will have a place to post lyrics if they know them. What does everyone think?

It's been suggested countless times but unfortunately, TA would have problems with copyright:

I can't understand the reasons either. I mean, it would be better for the producers.

Go figure.

how is it that trance.nu can have a lyrics section? and all the other lyrics websites on the internet?

I don't believe they've got the permission to do so, but I'm not sure.

Anyhow, keep in mind that everything here is done respecting copyrights and intellectual property (even the mp3's offered by TA were available thanks to the labels), so everything needs to be carefully analised before being implemented.

Have you ever thought why it is barely updated if at all now ? The copyrights are held by the writers, and there are royalties to pay. Some sites may do so, but imho it's not worth the hassle involved, as who do u pay ? is it individual writers, or a 'label' or what, it's all too complicated for the end result
