Is there an Open-Source Tab Database?
Is there an Open-Source Tab Database?
I was reading a discussion about UG and how their money-seeking practices are rather poor, for lack of better words.
Does anyone know if there is an open-source database of tabs and chord charts, or perhaps some kind of aggregator for community contributions?

The music and entertainment industry is fucked up. How is tabs even copyrighted? Are recipes copyrighted? Bullshit.

Yeah, they "went legit" years ago and have licensing deals with a lot of music publishers now.
