There used to be an e-mail lyrics server operating, several years ago.
It closed down due to legal problems.

I've been kind of anticipating a big legal crackdown ever since the
'net hit the big time.  I think the best way to keep the right to
maintain archives at all is to do it as a low profile operation.  This
is a private discussion list; I think the archive should be taken off
the web, and its existence should remain unadvertised outside of this
forum.  If we keep a low profile, and don't broadcast the availability
of this stuff all over the net, then nobody will take any notice of
our little fans-only lyrics project.

That's my suggestion, anyway.

Steve
