I've been following the discussion without weighing in so far. My sympathies lie more with Toby's point of view, having given guitar lessons in the past and knowing many working musicians and music teachers.
That said, I didn't know Tony's work - and work it is, having looked at the pdf he linked to - and I'm impressed by how good it is, and how kind it is of him to have made this available for free. I salute you, sir.
I'm glad the debate has turned a little toward the question of motivation and what you do with the material you have at your disposal, whether it be tab, video or whatever, that seems crucial to me. Chord-melody and arranging isn't my thing, I'm into old acoustic blues, learning from the recordings, but we each find a path that fits. That's a good thing.
