MediaMonkey can't get lyrics anymore?

"Unfortunately, we are not licensed to display the full lyrics for this song at the moment. Hopefully we will be able to in the future. Until then... how about a ?"

This has been coming near every time I search for lyrics of some song. So, now MediaMonkey is getting DMCA'd or stuff like that? What is happening?

4.1.20.1864

No addons except for a skin. I'm using the built-in method.

It's working here (latest beta). MediaMonkey uses various sources so it may help to know on which songs it fails.

I noticed it when I was searching for lyrics on most Blur songs. I can cite "I'm Just a Killer For Your Love" from the eponymous album as an example.

I made sure to test on other bands. I did a full search on the blink-182's first album, and the lyrics came as normal. So, it may be a problem with the place where the Blur lyrics are pulled?
