Lyrics are not legal too

Seems like after going after the copying of music, the record companies are going after the copying of lyrics. If you're a music lover, you'd know that listening to your fave tunes and reading the lyrics sheet is a totally heavenly activity. With the added support of lyrics display on iTunes, listening to music and reading the lyrics is easier than ever. Plus, some smart developers have released a number of freeware that lets you easily search and pull down lyrics. Well, the record companies are going after them too. The popular pearLyrics has got a cease and desist letter from Warner/Chappell Music Limited to stop development of this software. Sadness...
