I heard they are shutting down various other sites. Such as torrents, and others. I as a user am ready to support and standup for Chordie if they make any threats. Maybe Chordie would be best off re-incorporating internationally, it would be much more difficult for the industry to attack if the business is not officially "american". We need to come up with creative ways to fight back on this issue because we cannot let Big Brother win this fight!! They just havent realized yet that it would ultimately make them more money to allow the FREE publicity. I dont know about everyone else but I'm more likely to buy the music when I want to hear it 300 times to learn to play it/transcribe it!

Re: Progress, WQhats yours? (12 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I've had my guitar now for about 15 years. I tried to learn on and off throughout that entire time, but never made any progress, since I'd get frustrated with one string pluck every 3 minutes as I tried to read sheet music!! Then someone told me the key to teaching yourself guitar about a year ago. "Learn the basic chords" and it seems everything else has just fallen into place. I finally picked up the guitar in January and havent put it down since. I'm making incredible progress!! I can play many beginner songs and am fine tuning my transitions on several basic barre chords like F, Bm, Gm. Its been so much easier than I ever thought. Its like someone removed the mental block from out of my way!
