That's true, but not all in the one place; you'd likely have to buy dozens
of books to
get such a wide cross section.
But I think that's beside your point. I'm pretty sure that a *legal* way of
doing this would be to omit the words/melody (not seen in this example) from
the chord progression, eg just have the first word from each verse/sentence
in the song at the beginning of the chord progression.
If you do that, it's just a bunch of chords that could really be any song.
Plus you're not giving away the copyrighted melody or reproducing lyrics
(this would have to obtained in the official publication).

For some stupid reason I did not realize sites posting song lyrics and
chords are illegal. Never even gave it a thought. I know tab sites are
being shut down left and right because of copyright infringement. Obviously
it's the same thing. So much attention is focused on tab sites, illegal
downloading and recording copyrighted material without paying royalties that
I failed to use my noggin to see the obvious parallel with sites posting
words and chords. Ignorance is no excuse. What's right is right, and
what's wrong is wrong. That being said, I have a question. If I buy a song
book and sit at home and try to play the songs with a recorder on so I can
hear how I sounded, is that illegal too? What if it's a family function and
someone else is recording me with a camcorder? Common sense tells me that
it's ok as long as the audio/video footage is for personal use and not
posted on the net or anywhere else. Is that right?
RichL
Right. We've been through this before (I was on the receiving end that
time). But you probably didn't catch that. If it's strictly for personal
use, you're fine. Family function is probably OK too as long as whoever
records it doesn't distribute the recording.
Spud
progressions is not.
I figure as long as you don't post lyrics in their entirety, one should be
ok, for now.

you say it's illegal, but has any court precedence ever been set? As far as
I know the things like guitar tabs infringement has never been tested in
court...the threat of a lawsuit causes most sites to just remove them (of
course I'm new to the scene so don't know that for positive).
Just seems to me to be a big difference between big money believing that
something is illegal and threatening legal action because of that, and the
court system actually agreeing with it. We've seen these types of cases
before, especially in the "fair use" area.

Perhaps you are not knowledgable or have not been on this site much
the past year or more. There are all kinds of sites being shut down
due to copyright infringement. The law is pretty clear about lyrics
and melody being reproduced.
Chord progressions are not copyrightable. Posting or recording
copyrighted material without paying proper licenses is illegal.
Reproducing said material is illegal. This topic has been a regular
one here, so if you are interested, you could run a search.

Since you're kind of a jerk. - Cite the statute or shut the fuck up you
creepy old piece of shit. I've been in this newsgroup a lot longer than you
but I just don't have diarrhea of the keyboard like you do. You're one of
the reasons I don't post much because you always have something harsh to say
or you want to post a picture of one of those petri dishes you try stick
your shriviled old cock in.

I did read the post before I entered. Can you cite the law that says
you can't have sex with your sister? Since you can't does that keep
you from doing it? I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt
and assume not.
Such links have been posted here in recent months, which is why I
suggested running a search on previous related threads. However, you
seem to want to verbally attack rather than find out what the reality
is.

Hmm, send the tree trimmer. I began shaving my head about 15 years
ago, so your barber won't be able to get much from me.

Try counting to ten before you click send, eh? You would never say that
to anyone's face, would you? Especially when all he did was politely
express an opinion. If you WOULD say that to someone's face during a
discussion, then you might want to consider getting some counseling. I'm
not saying that to get in your face; I'm quite serious. Think about it.
What kind of society would it be if people screamed in rage and hurled
epithets at each other during discussions? I don't see why it should be
any different in a newsgroup.

I would never tell someone to consider "getting
some counseling". Who am I to judge that if someone
else doesn't walk/talk/act like me that they are
mentally ill or in some other manner "not right?"
jthread might be a totally worthless splash of
brothel spooge, but if he wants to call someone
a piece of shit, that's his right. ESPECIALLY in
an alt newsgroup.
I love you. Live is groovy. Nobody will ever
say anything bad and hurt you.

Sorry. My mistake. It's just that where I live the only people who
scream obscenities each other are in an uncontrollable rage, probably
drunk, and probably about to get their heads kicked in out in the
parking lot. I apologize if I in any way insulted your culture.

of nonsense. I feel quite confident he wouldn't do that in person. If
he would/does, no doubt he is one miserable, angry, bitter
individual.
We are probably providing a service, by allowing him to vent his
frustrations in a consequence free environment. This way he doesn't
kick the dog or beat his wife/girlfriend (hopefully). If this is the
case, then jthread, let'er rip pal, we are here for you.
