This is why I get so angry at all the self-righteous "PEOPLE PLAGIARIZED MUSIC AND THEY WEREN'T TALENTED AFTER ALL!" BS millennials and younger post on YouTube. Before the mid-70s or so, everyone borrowed everyone else's music and they were cool with it.

When bands started filling arenas and records started going double platinum, it attracted lawyers who started suing to get a piece of the pie. The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Doors, Bob Dylan....all of the 60's and 70's bands used other people's music and reinvented it. Before lawyers, musicians were flattered if they came up with something other people latched on to.

This has nothing to do with Millennials. We've not been the ones suing, it's been the lawyers and family estates of the older musicians. A lot more Gen X than anything else I reckon but also Boomer family members. And hell, sometimes it WAS the musicians from the 60s and 70s going after the big stars and bands that made it huge off re-visited tunes they originally developed (or repurposed as well but don't admit it).
 
More to the point, copyrights went from 14 years plus a possible 14 year renewal to life + 70 years for individuals and creation date +120 years for corporations.
