I'm not really too sure about this one, but thought I'd better throw it in
to your current copyright/fair use debate. Someone at 64.175.251.49 has
just posted all the lyrics to the songs from an album called cowboys from
hell (http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowboys_From_Hell). Apart from the
fact this doesn't seem like encyclopedia material, is it fair use to put
these here? It doesn't seem safe ot me. I've heard that quite a few large
lyric repositories have been shut down over the past few years.
