LyricWikiApi Down #45

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Attempting to fetch Lyrics using LyricWikiAPI from any of the available
apps.

Unfortunately, due to licensing restrictions from some of the major music
publishers we can no longer return lyrics through the LyricWiki API (where
this application gets some or all of its lyrics).

The lyrics for this song can be found at the following URL:
http://lyricwiki.org/David Bowie:Absolute Beginners

David Bowie:Absolute Beginners

(Please note: this is not the fault of the developer who created this
application
but is a restriction imposed by the music publishers themselves.)

Unfornately as long as LyricWikiApi is used this codebase will be useless.
