It looks like the NYTimes mention is drawing some serious traffic.

Let's be patient, understanding and tolerant. We just hit a new high of 113 users on at one time and that wasn't due to a weekend outage.

NY Times mention? Okay, I've missed the loop or something. What did the Times say?

They estimate, including overhead costs, tablature could cost about $800 per song to produce, license and format for downloading. Give me a break.

The ones their really going to hurt will be the fans. I'll vote for leaving the fans alone.

You know the 113 users happened on the 13th, but the NYTimes article happened this week.

What happened on the 13th?

That was a Sunday, no? Perhaps it was another one of those "let's get the most people online" things, albeit an "underground" one as I don't recall anyone posting the attempt like last time.

Maybe they were all new members wanting to share their "genuine Gibson guitars" :wink:

Peace

OK, I'll behave :cry: But it won't be fun :evil: I think we have just been getting more new folks joining because this is the place to be 8) I haven't noticed a lot of new people from NY on the site. Although I do get the NYT per the net I didn't notice the article, or the GN mention in it.--ken

AH-HA

We are one of five links on the remaining olga.net page linking to discussions about the issue. That's where the boost came from.
