When did sponsors decide that it was ok to use other peoples work in their banner designs? I'm talking about Lightspeed, GTS and any other sponsor who's using or has used music in their banner ads.

Do you really think that any of these companies are forking over licensing fees or royalties to these bands? Come on. This is no different than if you or I logged into a Lightspeed site, snagged some content and built my own site.

People are constantly jumping on others for stealing ideas, designs and content. But in this case of blatant theft, people decide to kiss ass.
