@dalias yup.
Thing is, I would have much less problem with all this if not for the fact that independent DJs were slapped hard for sampling musing ~20 years ago:

So if you're a small-time DJ sampling 1s of some song in a way that it's not recognizable, you are a Criminal Enterprise. But if you're Microsoft taking *all of the FLOSS code* and regurgitating it, sometimes byte-for-byte, that's fine and dandy? Fuck that.
