  I think everyone does...

  I think, IMO, a rip is when someone steals another work - and calls it their own.

  This is when they don't change it..and it looks exactly the same as the original.

  That is the definition according to Copyright law - to be violate copyright it as to be the theft of a completed work...not a similar style, or anything like that.

  I find very similar work to be just as immoral...but the legality has to be questioned.
