The Music Publisher's Association (MPA) is attempting to ban the publication of online music tablature. Their reasoning for this is that it takes money away from artists who have published tablature booklets. This is true, but they forget two important things:
1: Not all artists have published tablature books.
2: Most online tablatures are the interpretations of their respective authors, not plagiarisms out of a tablature book.
