 === Lyrics sites === 

 This used to be the site of discussion regarding the legality of lyrics sites. I have since realized that quoting song lyrics for education/research purposes is legal if... 

 #The lyrics are hosted in the United States. (It may be legal in other countries too - I just haven't looked into it) 
 #Those who host it make no profit off the lyrics and since it is impossible to monitor hosting costs and profit, it would only be reasonable for the host to do the service at monitary loss. 
 #Disclaimers are posted wherever lyrics appear and legal terms of service are publicly visible. 

 I'm building a new lyrics site and these are the terms I will be adhering to. If anyone thinks there is a flaw, please tell me here so I can correct my mistake before it's too late.   

 :The new site is open and can be found at http://e-lyrics.org. The legal information about E-Lyrics is available at http://e-lyrics.org/legal.php.
