News about whether did Coldplay copy Joe Satriani or not?

Guitar legend Joe Satriani has sued the British band Coldplay. Satriani is accusing the Grammy-nominated stars of plagiarizing one of his songs.

Satriani's copyright infringement suit, filed on Thursday in Los Angeles federal court, claims the Coldplay song "Viva La Vida" incorporates "substantial original portions" of his 2004 instrumental "If I Could Fly."

I found there is only a bit part in the music whihc is similar, around 15 seconds. I dont think Coldplay did it. If they did, why only copy 15 seconds,seems too less,right? And on the other hand, if Coldplay didnt get the Grammy-nominated by "Viva La Vida",if "Viva La Vida" isnt the song of IPOD. Joe Satriani would sue Coldplay? I thought the answer is not.

Yes,copyright is attached importance to in all over world,but seems except in China. One friend asked me that why there are so many fake clothes saled in anywhere in shanghai, and seems legitimate. The Gov. wont do anything to these. Actually, the fakes, whatever is clothes,CD,DVD,software,etc. are in good sales. The only reason is much cheaper,even it is free ,like software which is download from the internet. My college teacher told me that some chinese student abroad's laptop was stolen, who stole it, not for his laptop,the real reason is for the fake sofeware in the chinese student abroad's laptop. As we all know, the common sofeware like Adobe photoshop, if you need but it from Adobe company, it need cost $699.But the chinese almost get the software from the internet with payment for the copyright.I have to be honest to you, I did it,too. In china, there only 1% will pay the copyright fee.If every photoshop user like chinese, Adobe will go into liquidation tomorrow....LOL.
