And it wont to be lost in rhetorical arguments about the history of music and composers.

Someone on a jury to whom music is a sequence of sounds, not notes or other music nomenclature will be asked if the absence of that specific sequence of notes anywhere in Jimmy Page's life would have also meant the absence of stairway???

If you were a juror and had to be specific, how would you answer,

And if you would reference Bach or Mozart, then spefically indicate which of their songs sounds like the intro to STAIRWAY and therefore is free to use.

Thanks

You misunderstood my reference to Beethoven Martin.

So, copyright shouldn't have anything to do with notes, only sequence of sounds? Whatever that means.

If I were on the jury, I’d want the case thrown out. And as far as possible, so others are discouraged about filing frivolous lawsuits.

Stop analyzing; just compose the damn thing!
