GregB, I was in a church in Florida recently where they projected the lyrics of modern songs. It seems like the position has changed.

Last I heard, a person buying copyrighted material in the US was entitled to make one copy of it in another medium for their personal use.

There are two sides to such issues. Religious music ought to be available to all if it is to serve its purpose. However, the publishers need income to pay for printing, distributing, and so the composers can support themselves.

BUT if they publish a song and make the highest note an Eb, then this is war and all bets are off. We don't like paying for music nobody can sing.
