1. David,

   I looked at your study and the rankings in it. What you have here is great, but I think we would all benefit if you provided a list of unlicensed lyrics sites that tend to come up in the first page of search rankings. That way, if people type “[artist] [song] lyrics” into their favorite search engine, they will know which of the sites they get in their search results to avoid.

   1. For the general public you are absolutely right. And there is a public good aspect to what I’m doing. perhaps I will post that alongside the main list. There are several reasons my list is so deep and weighted linearly and I will eventually explain this in detail. But the most obvious reasons are to catch the up and coming sites and begin tracking them right away.
