I might have some sympathy if it was the song writer who was sueing but it isn't. It is simply a company looking after the bottom line. Worse, they didn't even discover the 'plagarism', it was someone on Spics and Specs.

From what I saw there are two bars which are lifted from 'Kookaburra' and these are in a solo, not part of the basic tune. If this consitutes plagarism what about the overseas guitarists who've thrown a bit of Waltzing Matilda into their solo when playing in Oz, what about Jimi at Woodstock and what about just about every classical composer in history?
