people can be real fuckin' assholes sometimes. same thing happen's on dA. usually the thief gets shut down pretty quick, but.. it's really sad when they get away with stealing/copying someone's work... i guess that's what we get for using a creative commons license and posting on the internet though.

It's fine if they actually SOURCE where it came from but to not source it and claim as their own really gets me.. which is why i don't usually post art. For that very reason for someone to take something of mine and alter it then claim as their own.
Further more if your friends music is on youtube and if people are giving them shit about it then perhaps they should look for the posting date as that will generally lead you to whom posted first.
Still your point stands i can't stand people whom steal from us and say they did it when each piece they mess with differentiates from the last. The same thing happened to someone i follow on here their work got ripped off and turned into something else and was claimed by another person..
Smh.. the people who steal are the reason why a majority of artist are the way they are.

they've included the posting date etc. It was posted a year before this song was out. yeah i agree, frustrates me to no end. that such people exist and can even live with themselves = =
