I think most people in the trad and folk world are happy to have people play their tunes. Whether they are happy to have them published as a manuscript (or other forms such as abc) is a different matter. Since Blowzabella publish the books as part of their income, they might well object to lost revenues if someone made a big ABC file and put it on the net.
Any thoughts on how strongly people feel about this?
