I was interested in joining another band site, Musician Leader, until I read the terms of use.
.
"your Contributions automatically become the property of Musician Leader without any obligation of Musician Leader to you."
.
Any song I post becomes their property . . .
.
Read the fine print before joining a site. . .

I emailed the company in question.
The guy running it is a musician, just like us.
He thanked me, because he wasn't even aware of that phrase; he's just attached the standard Lawyer verbiage.
I checked back - half the fine print disappeared.
Now it says the usual stuff, like don't offend anyone, etc, etc.
.
So: IT'S ALL GOOD NOW.
.
He seemed like a good guy; so "Musician Leader" now looks like an ok site to join.
I jumped the gun in posting this particular thread, BUT
.
STILL:
Read the fine print before you join any site.
