Uh, what’s the big deal? The production company who produced the commercial used a sound-alike track from their massive music library. So? Is it cool? Maybe not, but it happens all the time. I work for a company who does a ton of local spots; clients will come to us and say “we want you to use something that kind of feels like ‘Start Me Up’ by the Rolling Stones”, we find a sound-alike track in the music library and boom, done. There’s nothing nefarious or shady about it. Some hacky musician out there made a few hundred bucks “writing” a song that sounds suspiciously like a more famous song.
