I should really watch Juno, the soundtrack looks lovely.

it's all good, it's just how music grows and evolves (especially now that it's moved far beyond a solely auditory medium). people have been griping about scene kids ripping things off since the 70s.

I didn't know scene kids went back that far. Hell..I bet they didn't even know.

ps. If this doesn't make sense then it's probably because I've ben up 2 days straight because I can't get any sleep.
pss. You guessed it.....I'm super paranoid.
You know what's also annoying? Kids who have no interested in anti-folk (most of who have never even heard the term anti-folk) who only know who the Moldy Peaches are because of Juno bitching about scene kids "stealing their scene" when they had no idea either. I mean for fucks sake you guys are bitching about this in the rock and metal forum it just shows you're no different.

This is why I hate music "scenes" in general.

Because when bands from that scene become popular, or other bands become influenced by that scene, the scenesters bitch and whine about it.

Those are pretty bold assumptions. Are you implying our ineptitude because the hipster stereotype's so inclusive? Or because no one randomly namedropped a squadrant of lesser-hailed anti-folk bands or referenced Beck and Lach or some sh*t?
Plaguerism is plaguerism. I really liked Juno, to be honest, and I never meant to vilify it. Kimya Dawson didn't "sell out", and as I already said, I'm glad she's getting an assload of financial security.
"Flavour of the week" status sucks; this commercial's a great testament to that.

Oh. And yeah, I apologize for posting this here. I sorta didn't realize we had a Folk board.

Well okay I understand plagiarism is plagiarism and am by no means defending it I guess this is just the statement that confuses me.

Seems like bashing Juno to me and you also refer to the Moldy Peaches as a novelty act which weirds me out because I'd hardly consider Adam Green or Kimya Dawson to be cheap novelty musicians.

I'm still confused about you being a long time fan then placing it in the rock/metal forum.
