In Class Prompt 12

These four videos we watched today in class were very insightful. I never really thought about how much "remixing" there was in the world. Like the guy said, EVERYTHING is remixed. Things are copied and copied and copied over again to produce something better and more advanced. I was astonished at the fact the Led Zeppelin copied a lot of their songs. Led Zeppelin is a huge name even now a days and to discover that their music was made up of different songs just surprised me. I was also really surprised to find out that Steve Jobs was a huge hypocrite. Not only did he brag about stealing ideas from other companies and used them to make his goods better but also the fact that when Android copied apple, Stev-o was not to happy about it. Supposedly he sued. Hypocrite. I am really upset too because I am a huge fan of apple products. Everybody wants the Iphone and the Ipad...well most do anyways. This is plagiarizing on a different level that I never even thought about. These videos were very educational and very enlightening. I was absolutely shocked by a lot of the information that we had heard. The way I write my papers is remixed from what I read because that is what influences me. The music I listen to remixed from either other songs or similar beats. What also amazed me was what Walt Disney did to alter the law by asking the president to amend it. Things are truly not what they seem.
