I think we all need to realize what we're talking about when we say 'copy' here.
Copy'ing as in emulating or mimic'ing an idea is one thing. Lets say Coke hires a female singer to promote their product and it works, so pepsi hires one too.
That's not whats happened here.
Whats happened instead, pepsi has taken one look at that coke commercial and said "wow that singer is good" and has instead simply COPIED the commercial, removing most of the Coke paraphanalia from it, and replaced it with pepsi logos.
That's illegal, that's immoral, its flat out wrong. I mean, he even copied the copyright notice that Kush uses on his pages.
That said, I dont fault jay, I dont fault kush. I think its a bad situation here that has gone way out of control. I'm hoping that kush and jay settle it and it works out to make some sweet deals for both of them.
But in the end, you guys need to realize its not a matter of copy'ing _ideas_ here... its a matter of actually copying _CONTENT_ which should be abbhored in this industry or any other.
