the problem is tabs are covered by copyrights, which UG found a way to work around by basing their server outside the US (the server's in a country with a name that starts with r and ends in ussia). websites that are based in the US like the new one by guitar world have to pay artist royalties to print tabs for their songs.
u have to pay royalties for the tabs? but its not even done by the artistes themselves but by their fans!
