Different enough for Zeppelin to win.

There might be 2 similar notes in the whole arrangement but they are nothing alike. Anything to jump in on the success of another band. Glad to see Zepp get to keep their song.

Excellent! This song saved me once back in the 70’s so happy it stays in tact and owned by Led Zeppelin!!

These lawsuits over barely similar cord arrangements are such bullshit.

Lots at stake here..depending on who you listen to or who you read, Led Zeppelin have made approximately £500 million out of Stairway to Heaven alone since 1971...

I still dig that rock and roll. Led Zeppelin ROCKS!!!!
