Threat To Free, Legal Guitar Tablature Online
An anonymous reader writes "Recently Hal Leonard Corporation, the world's largest songbook publisher, sent an email to the music publishing and copyright community urging them not to license guitar tablature for free, advertising-supported use online. The email includes a number of factual errors and was potentially very damaging to the potential for a free, legal, and licensed destination for guitar tab online. Musicnotes and MXTabs have posted the full letter along with their response."

I know there's a oil shortage an' all, but let's throw a little gasoline on this bonfire for the homecoming queen:
Copyright, the new date rape drug of choice, AND it's totally legal! In fact it's mandatory! Ain't that nice? Oh yeah! Gotta get me some of that lovin'. Now, roll over, and take it like a man!
I mock you, and fart in your general direction. hahahahohohohehehe...I am the eggman, and... "I was the Walrus! PAUL wasn't the Walrus! I was just saying that to be nice, but I was actually the Walrus! Him and that RUBBISH he's been singing! Eastman was an ANIMAL!! A FUCKING STUPID MIDDLE-CLASS PIG!! I won't let fucking animals like that near me!! Yoko is a SUPREME INTELLECTUAL! I'll tell you why nobody likes her music--because she's a woman and she's Oriental, that's why! WHERE ARE YOU, MOTHER?! THEY'RE TRYING TO CRUCIFY ME!!"...thump...
