Wolfie:

Using a computer to create anagrams is "cheating" because an anagram is a mind-teasing type of puzzle, the point of which is to try to use your mind to come up with the scramble. It's like using a computer to fill out a magic number square. It's kinda pointless.

In looking up lyrics for people, the point is coming up with the lyrics, not doing it from memory or typing by hand.

Apples and oranges, my good wolf.
