I get songmeanings from Google sometimes but I personally like Genius due to the annotated and upvote/downvoted comments and it is a more visited site so I get why it's ranked higher.
Maybe someday web 7.0 will remember than engagement doesn't equal quality and there's a long enough tail of people that would pay for a good search engine that they'd support your small company just fine, and the hockey sticks, venture capitalists, and the masses can go drown in adwords.
Totally agree. Genius is such a great app. I remember being pretty upset when I read this article a few years ago, which shed light on Google's anti-competitive behavior against small companies that make a difference that Google can't make themselves.
