Comment on Show HN: YouTube Guitar Tab Parserparent

This is one i could get behind. I mean, all the tabs are crowdsourced anyway so why can you throw up the paywall only after all the tabs are made.

I only need the clean tab and transposing would be nice.

TerminalTabs anyone?

as far as i remember only the Pro tabs are paywalled (the ones created professionally)? the community tabs are all freely available on web, and carry little restrictions on mobile

Exactly why I can get behind a scrape here. They are already freely accessable.

I don't like having to switch to desktop mode to transpose though. They want you to get the app to do it on mobile which is enough of a reason to make a special program to do exactly what I want.

Also, scraping chord charts is in a different catagory from tabs. I can't even actually read tabs but with a chord chart you can get close enough to noodle around and emulate. Good enough for my needs.

I think in most cases it is the effort that is the gate. Ex. you can DDOS most public facing services simply by spamming AI.
