The downside of Pianotte is it focuses exclusively on sheet music for pianists.
The upside is it has a significant amount of modern music. If you're more into Coldplay than Chopin, it should be your first port of call. It even has some of the most popular music from recent years.
It might not be the most aesthetically-pleasing page to look at, but the site more than makes up for it with its content. There are several hundred tracks for you to download, all of which are delivered in PDF format. Musopen is another one of the best sheet music websites.

Transposing directly online before printing is ok, though, when that option is set by the publisher. However, with the growing support for Creative Commons I imagine there will be an increasing number of sheet music titles available in coming years which you will be able to arrange or transform with pre-approval from the composer.
Wow, looks great. Thanks for sharing these links and useful music teaching resources that most music educators out there can use today in their classrooms and studios.
Using innovative music teaching software and applications can take our music teaching experience to the next level. I also do agree with what Maria and Katie have said on the availability and accessibility of free sheet music as well as the importance of checking the licensing arrangements for each title.
