So WMG (Warner Music Group) has shut down a small danish band's flicks on Youtube and Myspace for alleged copyright infringements towards the R.E.M track Supernatural Superserious .. According to their claims, the track by "Hej Matematik" called "Walkman" is a rip off from said R.E.M. track ...

What do you guys think ?

Hej Matematik - Walkmand


R.E.M. Supernatural Superserious

Update: WMG denies all.

WMG in Denmark now claims an error on Youtube was to blame for the shut down of said track (but offer no explanation to why the video was was removed from Myspace as well) and counter attacks claiming that this was a media stunt from the band's danish label Copenhagen Records to bolster awareness of the relatively unknown album.

I don't know what to think other than... GEEZ !
