pearLyrics, a Mac OS X tool for displaying song lyrics of the track currently being played in iTunes, is no longer available due to a cease and desist order from Warner/Chappell Music.
… all pearLyrics only searches and accesses publicly available websites, displays, and, at the users wish, caches its content.
This must be the easiest way to grab lyrics! Excellent example of a nice app that does one job and does it well. Finds the lyrics without user input, allows you to alter the search, looks for the song chords, copies the info found to your song ID tags… What more could you want?
Update: Nice to see a bit of sanity come into play here:
- Facing an upswell of protest, Warner Chappell Music on Friday formally apologized to Walter Ritter over a letter it sent to the software programmer earlier this month targeting a helper application for Apple’s iTunes called pearLyrics.
