Gavitron writes "The online Guitar Tablature Archive OLGA.net has been shutdown again, to "ensure that composers and songwriters will continue to have incentive to create new music for generations to come." Scant details exist, but there is more information in forums and blogs."
Yes. People, corporations etc are and should be allowed to own copyright on works, and ensure that copyright is not being infringed through the legal system.

"I don't agree with a lot of the stuff that people post on here. I don't agree with a lot of people's political views. I am against the war (which I would assume most here are). I'm against smoking bans in states and cities on private property (I think if you don't like a restraunt because it is smoke-filled you can do what my parents and I did when i was litte: tell them their restraunt smells like ass and we won't be back unless they ban smoking in their facility). I think private businesses (but not government or businesses with public contracts) should be able to discriminate against people if they damn well please, whether it be because they don't like gays, catholics, women, white people, or whatever the hell they like (but if they have public contracts they should have to adhere to non-discriminatory policies). If they discriminate I'll be one of the ones telling everyone I know not go there."
It's hard to put into words how fucking stupid you are. Unless you live in fairy-land (which just might be true, judging fom your writing), most people can't just tell their boss to shove it and go get a job as waiter where they won't get slowly killed by idiots burning dried tobacco leaves and inhaling the smoke. In what kind of bizarro-world is it OK for private businesses to discriminate against you because you are gay, catholic or have big tits? Hey, you can just go and get another job, can't you? Perhaps you and I can, but 90% of the world's population are not educated, smart, good-looking, lucky and rich enough to do so.
Discriminating against races and sexual persuasions is OK, but sharing of guitar tabs sends you into rant-mode for hundreds of words? You might want to get your priorities straight.
