The Discord of Melkor--Harmonious to Iluvatar's theme?

Quote:
From Merriam-Webster's online dictionary: "Main Entry: 1dis·cord
Pronunciation: 'dis-"kord
Function: noun
Date: 13th century
1 a : lack of agreement or harmony (as between persons, things, or ideas) b : active quarreling or conflict resulting from discord among persons or factions : STRIFE
2 a (1) : a combination of musical sounds that strikes the ear harshly (2) : DISSONANCE b : a harsh or unpleasant sound"
Perhaps the people working on the canon should change the term.
