12 Oct 11 - 08:43 PM (#3238128) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: michaelr Oh great, just what we needed - another site that copies the same mistake-wracked lyrics that are all over the web and loads up with Justin Bieber ads and "send this to your ringtone" nonsense. Really, you've got some nerve peddling your site here at Mudcat, which has the ultimate lyrics database, The Digital Tradition, and none of that extraneous crap. |
12 Oct 11 - 09:05 PM (#3238134) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: Q (Frank Staplin) Well, sometimes I use those lyrics on the popular lyrics sites- a lot of stuff that is not well-covered in mudcat. I hope that there are fewer errors in your texts than are in the those already on the web. |
12 Oct 11 - 09:10 PM (#3238137) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: Q (Frank Staplin) Disappointed already. Looked up Gene Austin, and "My Blue Heaven" not listed. |
12 Oct 11 - 09:10 PM (#3238138) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: BTNG mudcat has the ultimate lyric data base...........? |
12 Oct 11 - 09:42 PM (#3238151) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: GUEST,Bobby @Q here is gene austin - my blue heaven lyrics @michaelr - here is whats happing in the real world - Lyrics are copyrighted the same as a poem. All the money from the banners on our site go to the artist (and we dont have pop-ups like other lyric sites) - we make no money from that. If you do a lyric site without paying the artist the RIAA will shut you down. You can read more about that here US music publishers sue online lyrics sites We tried to make our site as user friendly as possible and with the least amount of banners and the most amount of info. The more you know.... |
12 Oct 11 - 10:16 PM (#3238164) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: michaelr mudcat has the ultimate lyric data base...........? Is this news to you? Lyrics are copyrighted the same as a poem Is that why you put all the mistakes in? We tried to make our site as user friendly as possible and with the least amount of banners Well, it's way too much for me to bother with it. And who gets money from the Justin Bieber links? |
12 Oct 11 - 10:29 PM (#3238168) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: GUEST Is that why you put all the mistakes in? ---- The lyrics come from the record companies, (We pull from their database) just in that few years they have figured out they can make money from online lyrics but there are still mistakes in their database - I dont know why they dont take lyrics more serious and correct their database all we can do is submit corrections and hope they fix it. And who gets money from the Justin Bieber links? --- The record companies and the lyric aggregator get 100% of the Justin Bieber banners. we get NOTHING We are not doing our site for the money - we are music people and we are trying to make the best and least intrusive, 100% legal lyric site |
12 Oct 11 - 10:48 PM (#3238171) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: Bill D 99% **POP** lyrics. |
12 Oct 11 - 10:54 PM (#3238173) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site From: GUEST,999 Ain't nothin' wrong with pop. S'pecially cola. Bobby, I wish you well with your site. Do you have an e-mail address or contact address where writers might contact you in cases of faulty lyrics or misnamed authorships? |
12 Oct 11 - 11:53 PM (#3238186) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site: www.lyricsnmusic.com From: GUEST @ GUEST,999 Thank You very much - here is my email hello @ lyricsnmusic.com of course no space before or after the @ @Bill D - That is mostly true - however if you are an indie band and want to list your lyrics with us there is a link in the footer a href="http://www.lyricsnmusic.com/IndieBands">INDEPENDENT ARTISTS -- we will list your lyrics, youtube, iTunes, concert dates on one page for free - You dont have to be with a record company - helping indie bands is another thing we do that other Lyric sites don't |
13 Oct 11 - 12:02 AM (#3238191) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site: www.lyricsnmusic.com From: GUEST,999 One more thing: I do not like the feature where anyone can add to, delete or correct lyrics. How would you monitor that? I ain't tossing up roadblocks--I'm asking. I could give examples, but I think you're clever enough to recognize a potential difficulty with that. PS I will e-mail you tomorrow. |
13 Oct 11 - 12:29 AM (#3238197) Subject: RE: Tech: New Lyrics Site: www.lyricsnmusic.com From: GUEST Thanks GUEST,999 - Thanks for the feedback, Yes we thought of that too - a real person looks at any lyrics that are submitted and determine's if it is correct..... Sometimes well meaning people who are just trying to help get's the lyrics wrong - so a human looks at it and double checks before it goes live on our site. Looking forward to your email! -Bobby |
