For training speech recognition? Songs strikes me as poor training data.

I wasn't arguing against movies, just that subtitles rather than a final script isn't the best data source.

well not exactly for speech recognition when it comes to entering text into a document but as spoken word to subtitle. I think there was a TED video that showed this somewhere..
