It's a way to scalp users for money (a $5-$25 subscription doesnt pay for a license to buy every copyrighted song in the world). This isn't a way to reimburse the original composers of copyrighted materials. Plus I'm pretty sure Beethoven, Ravel, Tchaikovsky, Pink Floyd, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, My Chemical Romance, and John Lennon haven't made deals with Ultimate Guitar.

The copyright holders own the music, not the arrangements created by composers and arrangers. It's fair use as it isn't plagiarization or piracy of professional music. Nintendo, the bane of copyright usage and fair use hasn't flagged down any midi fan sites. Plus, these don't supplement the original, hell, for many artists, they offer no official transcription of their music. I know, but I shouldn't have to pay for non-professional arrangements of folk songs and 200 year old songs that no one own the rights to anymore (Bach and Mozart aren't alive and have no estate) or user composed songs. Such issues don't exist with local files so the argument should be moot for accessing local files (to be clear: copyright still does evidently). The mobile apps could of course lack support for offline access to any kind content, but that'd be another reason not to promote them, for me.Ī lot of the discussion in this thread is about copyright-related issues affecting content hosted via the website(s).

maybe I'm just blissfully unaware about mobile app development but MuseScore is based on Qt which exists for both iOS and Android and which (presumably) has the same file I/O classes on those platforms as it has on the desktop. The promoting is about the mobile version(s) too - mostly because most musicians I did mention MuseScore to are heavy users of tablet devices too.Īs to opening local files on a mobile device. Without it, the entire site would have been shut down for copyright violation long ago.ĪFAICT I didn't claim this was relevant for the desktop version I replied to an exchange about the Android app and even stated I'd continue to use the desktop version.

Anyhow, a Pro account on has always cost money, there is nothing new here except the specific things that required a Pro account (some things that formerly required Pro no longer do, others that formerly did not now do, mostly to pay the copyright owners of the music). Perhaps you are thinking of the score-sharing website, but actually, I don't think that site that offers or has ever offered games, so you might be thinking of something else entirely and just thinking it was related to MuseScore. If you got a message about purchasing, that wasn't from MuseScore - there is nothing in it that would ever ask for money, and indeed no way to pay for it even if you wanted to.

such issues are not interchangeable as it turns out, but are very confusing, to not have to say distrustful.Īs explained above, NuseScore - the music notation software for your computer that we volunteers support on this site - is free and always has been free, always will be free. A second severe and important disappointment that makes Musescore to serious extent useless for me. Meanwhile I cannot get free access anymore on my Android smartphone to my very own scores due to somewhat thoughtless decisions by Musescore and that, dear friends, simply is rather disgusting. As workaround I don't want to start some kind of private group in Musescore either to view my own scores on my smartphone, for I don't want them to be uploaded in any system that is not entirely controllable by myself - speaking of risky copyright! I am not a member of ASCAP nor any other copyright agency for that matter. Quite irrational, no? I never uploaded my own scores to Musescore, especially to avoid any copyright issues that could emerge. However I cannot infringe any legitimate copyright claims from nobody in the entire universe, except my very own.

(Not the previous Songbook-app for which I paid(!), because Musescore decided unilaterally not to support that very much appreciated app anymore, about a year ago, which still feels to me like breach of contract.) When I want to open my very own scores on my Android smartphone since October 5th 2019, a hideous pop-up tells me that I MUST unlock Pro by free trial for one stupid week, after which it will cost a fortune (to get access to my own scores, that is). I made in Musescore on desktop my very own scores and downloaded them on my Android smartphone in the 'collection' of the Musescore-app, which is called Songbook, so I carried them always with me. Copyright issues is pure bullshit, nothing else.
