Duplicated content in music

I was just thinking about duplicate content in web environment. Everybody is afraid of somebody stealing his website content, losing rankings, blog scrappers, PR going down, etc. Duplicated content is bad, bad, bad!!!

Well, is it the same in music? I am not speaking about stealing somebody’s song and pretending it is yours, no, that it is illegal. I am speaking about playing someone’s songs. I think that if more bands play the same song, this only makes the melody better since every musician finds that particular side of the song that fits him/her. Plus that it pays tribute to the original artist which is a way of showing your respect and appreciation.

So the reason I’ve started this post started is Love of My Life by Queen.
