Topic: Beatles in the UK?

When I click on a Beatles tune, it says that some company has claimed the rights in the UK, and UK users can't have access, but I'm not in the UK. What do I do?

Hi Maddie and welcome to Chordie,

This question keeps on coming up so I am going to cheat and paste a previous reply from my collegue Mekidsmom (hope you don't mind Amy).

The website admin has had legal copyright problems and has had to remove/block some songs.  Here's a link to a thread with some more information.  It's not necessarily the answer you're looking for, but a discussion of what's been happening with that issue.  Apparently the code placed to block the appropriate parties is a little haphazard, as a lot of folks in the US have noticed being blocked from time to time.  I'd suggest trying again, or checking out some of the other links given.  Maybe try without logging in, try again with logging in... or my BEST guess is that you need to edit your TIME ZONE.  I'm not sure how admin has the code written, but I'll guess it has to do with time zone!
