Wow, i never realized how stupid people are when it comes to the "arts". Some people go way overboard. Make sure you read the last paragraph of the article---I find it rather funny.

"The performance follows a legal case in which composer Mike Batt was forced to pay a six-figure sum to Cage's publishers, who accused him of plagiarising a silent piece of music."
