Music Plagarism

[chuckwagon]

**EDIT** I am a fucktard. Sgt. Giraffe already made this thread. HERE

There is a bit of an uproar on the internet about will.i.am and Chris Brown's new song. The music is obviously stolen. See below.

Since music is my profession, well at least the teaching of it is, I am really interested by the copying, re-working, or remixing of music.

There is even a cool website called http://soundsjustlike.com/ that shows such songs. It makes no judgement, but lets you listen side-by-side and you judge for yourself.

Kirby Ferguson made an OUTSTANDING web series called "Everything Is A Remix" http://www.everythingisaremix.info/
He examines these ideas in relation to music, film, copyright, etc. It is really well done.

So what are you're thoughts on music thievery?

Chris Brown deserves every bit of ill will that goes to him so I am willing to blindly follow what the internet tells me and hate on him.

PLAGARIST

I could care less as long as good music is produced

One douche claiming another douche is stealing his stuff.

Good thing I posted this on a Friday. I am going to need the whole weekend to pore over all of this thought-provoking discourse.
