I don't see that this is wrong doing, it's just not an original concept.
But I see your point. It's like all these remixes and "new" versions
of Lennon songs -for example. I don't like the idea of earning money
on dead peoples music/art/whatever....but heck, everybody's doing it....
and I am not saying that to encourage anyone, I'm just saying
that it isn't interesting at all listening to. Well, that's just my
opinion.
