Because they're assholes in suits.

If anyone has direct contact with bands that have tabs here please help us to get in touch. My e-mail is alexk@metaltabs.com.
Please don't spam them if you just know their e-mail from the official website, I can do that too 
cheers!  |
I'm going to start e-mailing the band's Ive tabbed for. I'll let everyone know if I get a response, be it positive or negative. |

I guess this would be the single most logical solution. I guess any country outside america would do, huh? Or at least I doubt they have any legislative power against websites not on U.S. domains. Go for it bitches. |

If i'm not mistaken this website isn't hosted in America. And no, not any country outside of America would be ok.

"yeah man , december wolves supports your tabs. the ultimate decision might be up to earache. i'm not really sure why anyone would have a problem with it. "
- December Wolves
Maybe going to the record labels/companies first would be a good idea. In the meantime, December Wolves tabs are go!

It wouldn't matter to me if they found the tab on the net, in a book, learn't from a friend or figured it out themselves. People enjoy playing along to their favourites songs. I think it's more flattering than offensive to an artist.
I find it very pleasurable to learn a guitar tab, I think we all do as it's very satisfying to play along with your favourite tunes.
People will never say to themselves "oh fuck yeah I'm ripping an artist off now!"
At the end of the day when an album comes out the songs have copyright to their name anyway and you cannot take that away by learning a tab off the internet.
Tabs on the internet cannot interfere with any music that has already been written and recorded when there is no way of modifying the original piece of music that has already been set in concrete so to speak on a copywritten recorded track that has been distributed by a record label.

i agree that contacting record labels would be a better idea so that means we should contact roadrunner metalblade earache and nuclear blast
and all of the other metal labels

Only thing is that labels are more anal about this sort of stuff than the bands they represent.

NO, DON'T. Give that job to someone else, you'll do nothing but piss them off.
They'll most possibly answer semi-positive, but please don't try to be our representative.
