If you want to get pissed at someone profiting from only sampling music of other artists to make his own, look up Girl Talk(link) this guy blatantly samples other music to make his own. The only reason Girl Talk isn't sued for his sampling is he doesn't profit from his CD sales he just makes money from touring. Which is where most artist make their money.



i've often wondered about this guy specifically. i fucking love girl talk, saw him live, danced my ass off, really good shit BUT I left the show wondering "how the HELL does this guy do this? he can't possibly pay every single artist he samples?" he samples a dozen or more artists per song!

but holy shit, girl talk is awesome.
