Pete Townshend, of The Who, has voiced his opinion on the Ed Sheeran "Thinking Out Loud" copyright case, stating it's "absurd" to accuse artists like Sheeran of ripping off older songs when they're using common musical elements. He believes such lawsuits could stifle creativity by making artists fear using basic musical building blocks.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
Townshend's perspective:
He finds it ridiculous to accuse Sheeran, who creates pop music, of copyright infringement based on common musical elements. He argues that the language of music is limited, and many songs share basic structures and chord progressions.

And he is 100% correct. It is RARELY artists or creators that sue. It is money people suing over money, not infringement. Corporations and lawyers always looking for more. Same old same old!
