Version: Chord Pickout 1.5
"Okay, it's not perfect--yet, but it's still a big help."
Pros: With a little music knowledge and this program, you can easily figure out any song. Sure, it's not perfect, but it's good enough for someone with enough music sense to knock out the chords in no time. It's still a very cool program that you should download the demo just to see it work.
Cons: Not perfect. It could lead you astray. Plus, it isn't free and I can't highly reccomend any program that will end up costing money.

Version: Chord Pickout 1.5
"Can come in handy.. but something you should all know before downloading"
Pros: What JDreller said^.
Before i came across this - i've been looking for something like this for quite some time.
Cons: To add to JDreller's comments - it only mentions "14 day trial"... well not only that - the demo only analyzes and transcribes the 18-20 seconds per song. that rather irks me. it would be better if it were FULLY-FUNTIONAL during its entire trial period! i'm hoping that be the case in the next coming future version(s)...(if there will be any)

Version: Chord Pickout 1.5
Pros: If it did work, that is, if it was able to detect the right chords at the right times, the ability to type in the lyrics would have been a nice bonus.
Cons: The harmony detection is really weak. That's the real reason why they only transcribe the first 20 seconds during trial.

Version: Chord Pickout 1.5
Pros: A nice idea.
Cons: Comes up with far too many chords which don't match what are in the original song. Seems to have a penchant for Gm chord.
Produces chords for passages with only drums and rhythm.
Costs 30 dollars.Summary: Don't buy it. read more
