One thing you forgot to point out - C.L. also solicited $2 "shareware" for
the song.  Heck, even Dr Tom didn't do that.

When I read her original post, I thought "Shareware for a song?  Is she
crazy?"  I personally would never think of doing that, but I guess it takes
all types.  However, if her song is just a hacked version of someone else's
work, that really puts things in a new light... at the least, it's unethical,
and it could be illegal.  Can you say 'fraud'?
