tab sites

[ulickmagroin]

as of this year all tab websites such as mxtabs ultimateguitar and the vast arshives of 911tabs will be shut down due to "copyright infringement" all musicians shall mourn their passing (including singers as you can't get lyrics now either). in my personal opinion this is complete horse sh*te as it is the musicians own interpretation of the song. so farewell tab sites and thanks for all the fish we shall miss you

i highly doubt they can shut down every single tab site.. plus there are the artists' own sites which have tabs as well n stuff... we haven't lost hope quite yet!

[jimi]

if they do we'll start one of our own

they're TRYING to shut down tab sites.
it's only a campaigne. i spelled that sooo wrong, but still.
with luck it'll either be crushed or just die out and our tabs will be back.
i think ultimate guitar are still doing tabs though.

[ulickmagroin]

eh no they ARE! maybe some will survive but taborama and mx tabs are already gone

[jimi]

screw that,ultimate guitar is the one to go to

and i prove you all ridiculously wrong by saying:

from ultimate-guitar.com:

This is official: UG will not be taken down by MPA, RIAA of whatever else organization. We have a license to distribute tabs on the Net, we pay royalties to the artists (rightholders) and we are in Russia. So if that's not enough, UG will go underground and move to a country which don't care about US laws. There are many of them around.

We care about US laws and appreciate artists' works -- that's why we are the only website on the Net with a license.

taborama are not gone, they are just laying low. When (yes when, not if) this bs blows over they will resume showing tabs.
as for mx tabs... that could actually be gone forever. but i care not. compared to ultimate guitar and taborama they're very sub standard (in terms of the tabs i get).
