Don't be so quick to judge and assume people don't know, don't care and ignore copyright laws/issues hence why I created a thread questioning legality of radio interview sampling. Further, Ive spoken to a legitimate producer (met him on my bowling league and he is someone that has actual National/Global recognition working with Justin Beiber, One Direction, etc.) and I've brought up this very issue and asked questions about this. He told me almost every single producer will sample, copy do whatever it takes to make a hot track and deal with clearing the legality issues at a later point when it becomes a worth while issue to do so. He broke it down like this to me... He said imagine that if every producer had to stop and get legal clearance for every single sample and sound used along the way to make just one single track.. It would take probably no less than a year or longer to finish the track and then that track might never even see the light of day. Bottom line is he said that he does whatever he needs to make a track and then his team deals with the legal hurdles when it starts to appear that the track will actually go somewhere... If time is an issue and they are having trouble getting the proper legal clearance then he says they will just make changes to whatever is holding up the track unless the sample is critical make or break part of the track then will wait it out as long as possible for the clearance.
