hmmm.. sure seems like if HFA and this company are going to be the sole-approved source for tabs out there, and they are going to both profit from it via ad revenue, they should be generating the tab rather than relying on the community to contribute.

Instead of asking each copyright holder to vette a user-contributed tab, why don't they have the holder submit the tab themselves for a slice of the revenue?

The wonders of internet ad-based revenue -- creates some truly scary business models. Wonder how this is going to pan out.

Thanks for the URL!

I would pay a modest fee for ACCURATE tabs.

I hope the songwriters get a piece of the pie.

I´ve bought a couple of official tab books (Eric Clapton for one) and none of the tabs were even close. This might be a disaster if the songwriters supposedly submit the tabs.

No! As I read it, "the world's largest PUBLISHER of TAB" will split the money. Which, I guess, means more pop-ups while I am getting TAB submitted by people who are just guessing anyway.

Even with my limited knowledge, I gotta use most TAB as a start, then figure the rest of the song out myself.

OMA, download FireFox and set it to block popups.
