well that'd still probably involve taking them to court

wow i'm actually genuinely pissed about this now. i honestly hope they litigate and at least ruin Disney's rep, as herr_prof said, oatmeal-style.

Meh, they sound -similar-, but not that same. I don't see it, personally.

Aren't covers legal? Or am I missing something huge here...?

That sort of use requires a sync license in the US. Covers require statutory royalty payments as well.

To me, changing the key and changing the instruments is not changing the song- George Harrison was sued over less.

This is lame, but at least they didn't use the cover in "Wreck-It Ralph" trailers.

Yeah just what we need, people comparing us to Disney songs now.
"Hey man, I love your Disney Mario music!"

It was hard enough for people to take us seriously before. . .

People don't take Disney music seriously? I love me some "Once Upon A Time (In New York City)" and "Sing Sweet Nightingale"...

This app really annoys me for some reason... just... everything about it... ugh. Pretty smart move on their part, though... maybe...

I. . . I don't even know what those are. lol
and it's not that people don't take Disney seriously, it's that they wouldn't take us seriously. Same as people take video games seriously but not necessarily us. But I'm unrightfully speaking for everyone.

A part of me is proud of your parents.


I don't need another reason to hate on the Disney company, they already try to legislate everlasting control over fairy tales they don't own and completely ruined copyright law. Nice to see how well they respect the law they helped to create.

They also imported Miyazaki and have their occasional moments of innovation...
