What Doesn’t Kill Me, Only Makes Me . . . Similar? « JETLawBlog: The Official Blog of the Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment and Technology Law.  ”RapperKanye West once humbly proclaimed, “I realize that my place and position in history is that I will go down as the voice of this generation, of this decade, I will be the loudest voice.” One can only hope that the voice of this generation is not a mishmash imitation of artists past, but according to a copyright infringementlawsuit filed against Kanye West, the voice of this generation is a copycat of sources from Nietzsche to Daft Punk.”  I have written and have other posts about Mashups.  Nice examination of the topic.

      I am not an expert, but it helps to understand copyright in the past jobs I have worked in Publishing and Ad Agencies. I looked at the article and i would say that the logo was inspired by the Olympics logo. It would be too close for me to feel comfortable using it.
