At this website you can select 700 different songs and get the lead sheet, the lyrics, the chords, change keys with just a click and then play the song while watching a video of the person that recorded the original song on some of them.

Great find!
Don't know how it gets past the copyrighting
but there is a so-called explanation on the page which I can't be bothered to read
I'm dyslexic anyway.

I don't think Diki's post is negative, just states out some points.

Hmmm.... strange to see so many think it's all right to spread such links
by use of a site like SZ.
Bebop don't care about copyrights, that's something we knew for years,
but maybe Nigel does? And the site linked, if you care to look, they sure
have copyrighted material downloadable.
I don't think Diki's post is negative, just states out some points by refer
to rules that some up/downloaders don't care about.

Anyway, I'm not any Saint myself, but I don't post such links public and
neither by use of private e-mail lists.

Cheers and happy downloading.

So let me get this straight,no editing & no links on SZ ....so what's left? The only reason I come here is to enjoy music & try to weed through all the BS & continual pissing contests and learn something from people more in the know then myself. Is that asking too much?

Your sanctimoniousness and obvious agenda are equally so.

There's absolutely NOTHING in my post of a negative nature. One member asks how it gets past the copyright issues, I post the text of the site's policy, and a possible reason why it is still up when many others have been closed down.

You want to read negativity into that, go ahead... Read it into this as well, then:

Have a Nice Day

Bill was nice enough to share something he thought would be advantageous to the group.
Instead of just saying thanks you take a nit picking approach into copyright laws taking this thread into a downhill slide as you always do. If that was a happy moment it could of fooled me.

John-

Go back and re-read the thread. Eddie asked about the copyright angle, which is a legit question, and Diki went to the site, found their verbage regarding copyrights and posted it here for the thread to benefit from as opposed to perhaps assumptions, conjecture or who knows what.

I don't think Diki did anything wrong in this instance whatsoever. By your post, am I correct to say you meant Eddie of all people took the thread down a negative road by asking the original question? That's silly...

If Donny had posted that info, as he has provided details on various questions countless times, would you have reacted the same way? A question was asked...and someone posted a very reasonable answer...

Let's not manufacture this stuff.

Bill read into it what you wish. But as I see it the end result is that a very nice gesture becomes something negative simple as that. This forum is becoming a mine field lately.

That's kind of my point...

I'm trying NOT to read anything into it. Based on the words written, I don't see what you did...

Well, regarding the editing issue, it's a feature that we can use locally on our PC.
Simply write and edit in Notepad or other applications and copy & paste to the fora
when you got it as you want it.
During the years far to many posts been written that started some kind of issues, and
all that sudden the part or whole post deleted or edited to a totally other post than
the original. Not only here at SZ GenArr, but other fora as well.
If we can't stand for what we post, just don't post.

Regarding the links, noone said anything about not post any links, but I think you'll
manage to find some discussions/treads about copyright issues if you perform a search
at SZ. It's not a unknown theme, it's been discussed several times during the years.
Maybe some of us even remember when Yamaha entered the scene?

What's left? ... If editing, deleting and put up links are what you're looking for,
I guess the free services Google Office & Google Search will be a better choice than SZ.

Cheers
GJ

In my LONG experience with Forums of all kinds ,every Forum is a minefield.
Simply because the written word carries no face-to-face contact.
There is no immediate conversation.
Therefore, what has been written is able to be studied and more is read into it than was intended.

My point is that because every forum can be a minefield, we should treat it like one and tread very carefully with our riposte . Avoid instant reactions.

Life is too short to give us time to look for argument.
Let's be kind to each other.
cheers
Eddie

Looks like a potentially interesting and useful site but the first tune I tried to download gave me a "file not found" error, the second one brought such a flurry of popup ads that I had to shut down Mozilla just to get out of it...

Of course I do but I am not about to be forced to make judgement on every website someone posts a link to. That could be a fulltime job, and it is doubtful whether the necessary information would be made available to make those sorts of decisions.

But like this particular site's disclaimer YouTube seems to have pioneered presenting material until a copyright holder requests it to be removed. A major percentage of YouTube videos seem have been grabbed from commercial work. And I am certainly not about to start judging and censoring links to every YouTube video that is posted. I am not even going to open that Pandora's Box.

If you feel strongly about a website's policy on copyright the only people to contact are the copyright holders. If there is a breach of policy then the content will be removed.
