John, how would you feel if one of your more accessible solo piano pieces had an intro that someone used the exact same notes, melody, chords, rhythm..exact for almost four bars, but they add or change a couple little incidental notes...and the piece went on to make millions...
How would you feel if they were a member of this forum and you knew they probably heard your piece?
Would it be different from how you might feel if they were total strangers?
Just trying to generate some empathy for the plaintiff from you, regarding this case.
Mike
