A judge has decided to allow a lawsuit claiming that Led Zeppelin plagiarized its iconic song “Stairway To Heaven,” which has earned more than $560 million in sales and royalties, from a track by Spirit, a band it once played concerts with. What do you think?

“The only thing worse than this would be finding out the entire genre of rock and roll was somehow stolen from another culture.”
