Does anyone know what happened to the site E-Chords.com? I was able to access them yesterday as a subscribing member but can find anything on what happened to them. No shut down news, nothing.

say it isn't so.
j/k

my first guess would be the site shut down, second would be they posted stuff they got sued for and were shut down, third would be they decided there was more money in.................
what did that site offer that you can't find here or else where?
introduce yourself over at the "Meet & Greet" forum. you may find this is a better site,

that's a big site to be offline. Hacked perhaps?

Well, it's been 48 hours and still no luck logging into the site. I use quite a few sites for chords and e-chords is (or was) the best by far. I hope they get it back up.

I would bet it had something to do with this:Houston, TX (AHN) -- An explosion Saturday evening at a Texas-based, privately held server hosting provider has caused server outages effecting 9,000 servers and 7,500 customers.A guy I know of had to find a temporary hosting solution because of this. The internet was hurting for a little while. Here is a link to the full story I found; Slashdot has a story, too.

Goods news, that. E-Chords.com is one of the best site for tabs/chords. It has the scattered tabs from all over the net which are complied pretty nicely (and midis in many case).

The info is on digg.com as well and thats the most likely reason they where down. Glad they are back though, you had me worried for a while
