The bottom of chords.fm says "Copyright CBMS Networks, Inc."
Which points to this website: http://cbmsnetworks.com/ http://cbmsnetworks.com/
Is this really a startup? Is this really YOUR startup? Or a project at a larger company that specializes in technology like this?

If this is not according to HN definitions, than I am sorry for posting it here.
