I dunno, when I hear that new Everclear song where they sampled the guitar and horns from "Mr. Big Stuff" then rap about the 70s come on the radio, I grab my CDs and the radio goes off for the day. Good bye plagurism, hello Primus, Frank Zappa, Morphine, and Tom Waits!

I think sampling can be done artisticly, but more often then not, I end up hearing cheese.
