OLGA shuts down (again)
I just read over at Fark that the Online Guitar Archive shut down again. As I wrote in my long history of cracking down, OLGA has been shut down twice before in the 90s.
According to wikipedia, the latest shut down occurred on July 27, 2006 after receiving a take down letter from the MPA and NMPA. Here’s what the olga.net site says as of today:
OLGA is currently offline while we attempt to resolve legal issues with the archive.
We received a ‘take down’ letter (pages 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 ) from lawyers representing the NMPA and the MPA.
We greatly appreciate your support and hope to return to providing resources to the aspiring guitarist as soon as possible. Contact rcwoods for more information.
