Forcing people into paying for the distribution of their own midi files/scores would be one major issue. Of course musescore.org claims that musescore.com is a totally separate entity but they go out of their way to confuse visitors of the .org site. The interaction between .org stewards and the general public is totally bizarre. It's the same trick that gracenote pulled on cddb many years go. It was ugly then, it's ugly now and the copyright excuse just doesn't cut it, all they'd need to do is properly implement the DMCA for this problem to go away.


Hey Jacques, this was one of the main things I wanted to clarify too, after looking at user feedback over the last week. Would you be up for a quick chat to understand better how to remedy this?


Sure, email in profile.
