Katy Perry loses $2.78 million lawsuit over copyright infringement

Apparently the jury found that Dark Horse sounds too much like this song - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTLeHuvHXuk

Personally I find the comparisons to be weak at best as the 2 songs don't really sound all that much alike. I strongly disagree with this verdict.

Why would anyone care about this? I don't even know who this person is.


I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.

None of those names mean a thing to me. Never heard of any of them.

Are they names of real people or are they just characters in a TV show?
