I did not read the entire article linked to or notice that it was on NPR when Kris first posted it here. NPR is notorious for stirring up s***when nothing has or will ever happen and they tend to slant everything to the negative side. I tried to find other stories relating to this article, there were very few and even those referred to the NPR article as its source. While it may be true that youtube is in the process of yanking all lessons that teach popular songs they have not done so yet.
Example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m79m_PXFmJs Maybe some of the lessons they have yanked just crossed a fine line that no one will ever be able to define.

This is sad. What next? Will it now be illegal to produce or purchase an electronic device that is specifically designed to slow down songs so that they can be transcribed?

Yeah, didn't think of that ... I'll bet that if they wanted to the record companies could have a go at applying the Digital Milenium act there - after all, its reverse engineering a song -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile

I just checked youtube. Jihad T.V. is still ok as long as you don't sneak in a guitar lesson.

Whoa, youtube is closing all guitar lessons.....
That would include Kris' lessons on youtube? YouTube is gone wild! Kris, somehow i suggest you keep the lessons going on youtube cause thats what caused me to join GMC (other that UG).... After all it would be cool if we had as many members as possible. -------------------- _____________________________________________________

No, they're just taking down lessons which teach sections or passages out of copyrighted songs. Anything else will not be targeted.
