Again, you can buy songs individually for about $4-$5 each at sites like Sheetmusicdirect.us and Musicnotes.com - and they actually have a lot of material that is out of print or harder to find... so the argument for not wanting to pay $30 for a book really doesn't work anymore.
Then again, MXTabs.net is working on relaunching as a free, legal guitar tab site this summer. So hopefully this whole issue will be put to bed soon.
If you guys can rile up some grassroots support, that would be great. In the meantime, we are already gaining support of much of the songwriting community. We should have an official announcement out regarding music publishers and songwriter associations that are in support of MXTabs very soon. Still, much more awareness is needed.
