Ya I don't mind samples as long as who ever is producing albums doesn't stick to only using beats with samples. I think Kanye is the best producer who uses samples right now. He makes great beats with samples, but is also good at creating his own orignal beats.
I personally don't mind it. It's seen so often these days that people are making $ from others for not doing much. If the song is catchy, with a good beat I'll probably download it and burn it.

Think of the younger generation who may never get exposed to some great music if not for a 2-5 second loop?
Then that's just plain ignorance.
Any of these music 'knowitalls'....should know that the history of the music they're listening to now....
...like that show on much music.......were they pic genres....say metal....and they show you how it's gone from Black Sabbath to Theory of a Deadman...
You have a point....but I just think that's sad...
