How come this is alright:
Coldplay have admitted to plagiarising for their new album "X&Y". In an interview with Xfm Chris Martin said: "As people listen to the album more and more it'll become apparent just how much we've plagiarised."
"To me, at the end of our album we should have had a bibliography, or a discography, or references."
"The end of "What If" is taken from The Beatles. We were stealing from a lot of people. Much more than people think."
and this:
"young people may be swapping files illegally without their parents' knowledge".
isn't?
The only difference I can see is that Mr La-di-dah Martin is doing it for financial gain.
