I'll say this now, but I already knew about at least some of those. And I do agree that they should have given credit where credit was due, but they have also written plenty of 100% original songs, and it doesn't change the fact that Jimmy Page is one hell of a guitarist. So if that is enough for you to completely hate them, I can't say that I don't understand, but for me it just isn't enough. It lowered my respect for them, but that is the reason why I never list them as one of my top artists. As much as people fail to recognize that this is not such an uncommon occurrence. In fact, the music industry was built on piracy, starting with patents that didn't extend to California for recording.
So where as I don't respect them nearly as much as I used to before I knew that, I can't say that I hate them either.

i will be entirely honest. i never really enjoyed led zeppelin but i respected them as an artist. well my respect has dropped a whole lot. i will never question their influence in hard rock and heavy metal but i will admit right now this is a huge disappointment.
