Remix: stealing, or collaboration?

1.
I thought some of the more interesting aspects of this film were the parts that dealt with the creativity of remix. I will come out and say it now: I am a fan of remix. If I were an artist that made something and another artist took that and made something new and interesting that I never would have been able to produce myself, I would like to think I would be excited about it. I think the most interesting example of this was The Grey Album by Dangermouse; I've been a fan of that album for a long time and so I knew a little bit of the controversy surrounding it, but I never fully knew the Dangermouse himself had never made any money off of this. I really appreciate that he just wanted to create art for arts sake, and it makes The Beatles' lawyers come off as a bit greedy since they were the only ones that had made money off of this venture. This, to me, illustrate's an old way and a new way of thinking: older people seem to be more interested in the idea of creative or intellectual property, whereas someone younger, like Dangermouse or as the film goes on to show: Girl Talk, and the Brazilian remixer, they all seem to be a bit more relaxed about it. Creativity isn't property, but a way in which to collaborate with other artists to make something new.
