Same! That was a sad day

Similar feelings when Napster (the original cool version) and Grooveshark shut down.

I think most of the OLGA tabs have been moved to Ultimate Guitar (which supposedly compensates authors or has other ways to be copyright-compliant?) and if you look for semi-unknown songs from the 90s you can still find them, in their beautiful notepad-like glory.

Up to a few years ago it also didn't have an atrocious interface with plenty of antipatterns. Now, on the other hand...
