ha ha... i was waiting for someone to ask this. from what i've heard,
some record company heard about the lyrics server, perused it and found
a ton of stuff that no one was paying copyright royalties on (basically
the whole thing was illegal) and notified the rest of the record
companies affected who have effectively shut the thing down.

it was fun while it lasted though... --d
