The leo.org mirror site is still up.
There's supposed to be some litigation going into effect after the first of 
the year.  That could cause a lot of music on the internet to be removed, or 
the holder of the particular sites to be fined.  I've got an old (sometime 
around the first of January 1997) html off a music site that gave the 
how's/what for's concerning the litigation and what all it would do to just 
the internet sites, especially those with real audio, .mid and other audible 
music.  I'll see if I can find it on my other system (if it's not been 
deleted) or possibly find it again on the net (I think I bookmarked the URL 
several versions of Netscape ago!).
If what the author of the html was stating comes to pass, the UN will be 
designating how the litigation will be carried out - how infractions will be 
taken care of.  That's why on all my sites, except one, I've already gotten 
permission to use the material. I was requested to add 'online music' to the 
Darrell McCall Fan Club site, which I maintain.  Since the requester was 
Darrell, who gave me the cd to use to make audio files, his act of giving me 
the cd was all that was necessary.
If all that litigation comes down, TABLATURE could be in jeopardy *AGAIN*!
