Taborama (http://www.taborama.com) has taken down all their lyrics and guitar tabs, most likely due to the MPA's threat of legal action (http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=100820&highlight=MPA+lauren) directed against web sites which offer such files.

I can understand the music people being made about the downloading music, but I don't see how they lose money by people putting lyrics or tabs(unless someone copies it from a tab book)

I have finals this week... if I didn't then I'd do this:

Someone NEEDS to go to tab sites, and ARCHIVE them. And seed them. XDCC them. P2P them.

Some sites' collections are so vast, it'd be like the ancient Greek and Roman libraries burning down if they were to simply be deleted forever.

Yeah, their lifes need purpose.

But seriously. The day I have to start paying a site to access guitar tabs is the day I start paying to access porn sites. Pff.

I'm assuming that the people running the sites aren't just going to delete every file off of their server. They'll still be kicking around somewhere.

yeah but if this bastards little act or whatever passes, it will be a bitch to access tabs :(, also i dont really get how the tabs can be illegal, most of them people make themselves and aren't exactly correct, so techinaclly its not offically the bands music.

why is there such a witch hunt for people looking for tabs and lyrics? i guess to buy the album but the only band i've ever known for sure not wanting their lyrics and tabs posted is Flogging Molly.

Hopefully copyright infringement only applies to scores that are actually correct....tabs show nothing but where to put your fingers on a guitar. I'll sit in court and play a tab 100 different ways. I'm angry.


edit: I hope you realize the petition that was made says "Keep Lyric And Tab Sits Legal".....not to be a dick but a petition is generally longer than one sentence and at least spell check it. i signed it anyway.

There are the people's emails... the direct email address to the moron that wants people thrown in jail.

Its all about money, money, money, money, money, money, money and more money. Sorry I think lyric/tab sites promote bands more so than cut into their income, its the greedy tab book publishers that are needing some cash that are bad.

I can't wait to see Andrew McMahon back out on tour... I remember him saying something at a show about how we wants the fans to screw over the record company and down load his music or something.

I should think Google has many of the pages cached, this may be a rudimentary workaround. Also, that site says it's only signed bands if that makes any difference to any of you.
