I had a conversation with one of my media law professors about this in college. He's very well respected, has taught adjunct in the journalism and law schools at South Carolina for 30 years while practicing law. He's the primary attorney for the South Carolina Press Association. Even HE couldn't see how cheer music was legal as it stood. (This was probably 2011)I agree... I always wondered, aren't people getting mad for their music getting all mashed up?!
I've also wondered how artists and record labels didn't care that people were taking their music, remixing it, and selling it for a personal profit. I guess it was a drop in the bucket for a long time, and now as cheer grows and becomes a bigger spectator sport the industry began to notice.
I also think this is the reason why UCA and NCA camp dance mixes have been those funky covers/remixes for so long.
