People who won’t learn to read music?
Is it me or is there an ever-increasing tide of people posting here wanting 'the notes' to this piece or that (usually the same pieces!!)? Whenever I can be bothered to reply, I encourage these people to learn to read music and discover the wonderful world that awaits them on the other side.
I don't believe it's very hard to learn to read music if one does it in a methodical way and puts some effort in (I'm no genius and I did it quickly enough). Why, then, are there apparently so many people who seems steadfastly to resist (or even refuse) to learn to read music? Is it part of the epidemic of laziness we see every day in "please do my research/homework for me" or "I can't be bothered searching for this on the internet myself - please tell me ..." questions every day in here? If so, I despair for the forthcmoming generation of couch potatoes.
What are your thoughts? How can we encourage people more to learn this not-so-difficult task? Should we have a section policy of refusing to type lines and lines of 'notes' in response?

Sheet Music and Note Reading?
Why is it that everyone always asks for the notes? I mean, even if you do not want to learn sheet music...you can always get a filled out staff and set them side by side....
ok this one is g.... ok this one is c.... ok this one is e.....
if you don't have the knowledge to realize that notes translate to positions on the sheet music staff, no wonder people can't learn to read sheet music. :/
I pose another question, Has behavior like this always been an issue? (the note reading / sheet music)
that post kind of set off the question, but I have just seen it so much in the brief time that I started posting in this forum....
and as has it always been this way, i meant in general not just in respect to the forum.

Sheet music to practice sight reading?
I have been playing guitar for 2 years and I know music theory and how to read sheet music, but I don't have any sheet music to practice sight reading with. Could you recommend some (very) easy songs to practice sight reading with and possibly where to find sheet music for them?
