Just to be clear on this... I don't agree with plagiarism. You can't copy something from someone and try to pass it off as your own. That is just wrong. But making a copy of something and giving credit to the author has always been acceptable. They even have specific rules on how you do that. There is a book I got in school that goes all into how to properly cite your sources in legal writing as well. So give credit where credit is due. Yes, this song I'm listening to is not an original piece by me. The band is well known and there is no way anybody would ever confuse me with being the artist, record company, or anything else to do with the production of the track. Someone shared their record with me and I made a copy of it. That doesn't sound so nefarious now, does it?
