Hopefully this will be the end of this silly saga.
Every day on commercial radio, which I hear mainly because it's played at my gym, I hear pieces of older popular songs blatantly copied into the middle of current pop hits. I think some of the perpetrators actually take a pride in doing this and getting away with it. That's why I get so steamed up at things like this lawsuit, which I regard as a case of "Other people are getting nice payouts for copyright infringement, so I want a piece of that action, let's give it a go."
