Members chiro972 Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 This is just a freaking bunch of crap. That was the best site out there. The transcriptions were all individual, not copied from some worthless tab book that doesn't even follow the actual song. I am just in shock! Greedy bastards.

Members icecap Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 mysongbook.com has been closed down for years now (not closed, but you cant download the files), but other sites that offer gp files are still up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members O'Rourke Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 WTF, this sucks. These greedy pricks want to charge people for even daring to download and play some random guy's transcribed version of a song. Ridiculous IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DonK Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 It seems every few months I read about another tab site shutting down after getting threats - usually from the Harry Fox Agency - but the Ultimate Guitar Tab site remains up (and they have a huge selection of tab). Wonder how they manage to stay up? http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members rpeterson Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 I believe UG is located in Russia, where they don't really care about our copyright laws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Yasgurs Farm Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 - but the Ultimate Guitar Tab site remains up (and they have a huge selection of tab). Wonder how they manage to stay up?http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/The Ultimate Guitar tab site is operated by our brothers and sisters in the former soviet republic of Russia, now the nation of Russia. I have used Ultimate Guitar tabs for years. They are reliable and hassle-free. I rely on the site for tabs of pre-1927 songs that are not copyrighted. Yaay Russia!!!

Members fw190 Posted April 5, 2008 Members Share Posted April 5, 2008 I'm all for sticking it to the Man, but I'd rather buy a tab book than live in Russia. The lack of respect for the rule of law can cut a lot of ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
