Legal action against traders of MP3s and videos? That's so last year. 2006 will be the year the music publishing industry cracks down on online lyrics, song notation, and tablature. We're not talking small lawsuits: the head of the publishing association promises jail time for site owners.

HAHAHAHAHAHH!!!

The sad part is, these pathetic attempts to control the music industry are enforced by the actual artist. I have lost all respect for artist that bitch about getting $12 million in sales, as appose to the previous years of $20 million.

if we buy music, we need to forget it within 1 hour of listening to it, as to prevent us from humming or whistling it to our friends which would again deprive artists of royalties

Tranceaddict will probably close in 2008.

Tabs I can understand, though only if an actual tabs book is available at a sensible price.

Nobody is going to be coerced into buying lyrics books off the industry, and the industry can fuck right off if it thinks its going to try and make me.

However, the fortunate thing is that tabs only really apply to songs using real instruments, which you don't really get much of in our line of music, and only the very large publishing companies are (so far) petty enough to try and start a fight over lyrics. So I think we're safe.

fuck that.. usually the tabs you see online are ones transcribed by regular people. even if the tabs were note for note with the "official" tab book, the author could just say he has an ear for music and can transcribe it well.

the artist gains nothing if tabs were prohibited, and in my opinion, doing so would stifle the creativity and potential of many beginning musicians who use tab as a tool for learning their instrument.

I get knocked down, but I get up again. I try to keep awake but I can feel this narcolepsy slide into another nightmare, yet I don't smoke cigarettes, because I know that they're Toxiiiiiiiiiic. Da ba dee da ba die, da ba dee da ba die.

Mxtabs? I used to get drumtabs from that place. Shit, it's like watching a good friend die.

I acknowledge that there is a legal basis for this, but... It seems so corporate and cold-hearted to me. Now I'll actually have to buy fucking lyrics books? Leeches.

I guess its a good thing that most of the music we like doesnt have lyrics. Long live non-vocal EDM!

Hahaha.

I was reading about this before, my comment: "gay." :P

anyone ever visit "theman.com" when it existed?

I never did, but for some reason, I think of "the man" and I'm frustrated.

However apparently "theman.com" used to be a cool site... I wonder if google still has it cached...

DOWN WITH THE MAN
