For years I bought books, fakebooks, sheet music, etc. I have many boxes of these in the attic. I guess I should sell or donate them to someone who might use them. Almost every new song I learn now, I just write down the lyrics and chords, listen to a recording and figure it out.
I have downloaded some "free" stuff also, just in case I ever need it. The times they are a-changin'!
I didn't mean to be critical because I download lyrics, chords, midi files, styles, etc. all the time. I do fear that all this sharing will eventually hurt new development. In fact it already has.
