Wolfgang, I never said that there weren't hits to sites which included Mudcat via a link. What I said is the site itself, on it's own, didn't show up in the searches.

I stand by my original assertion, which wasn't meant to "prove" anything more than my surprise at Mudcat not showing up in the google search.

I am, OTOH, not the least bit surprised that Mudcat/DT comes up quickly in a search for lyrics/songs. It is my opinion (and I'm not claiming anything but opinion here) that the main use of this site is the DT lyric database, and that it likely accounts for the majority of hits. However, because none of us has the information about that and Max hasn't provided a breakdown, my opinion, like everyone else's, is pure conjecture.
