An interesting read... I don't think I buy it, but it's interesting.

I have been around all forms of this with the only exception that I can think of being lead vocals. I do know of examples of even that happening, and I'm not just talking Milli-Vanilli. Many cases of someone "doubling" a lead vocal, which ended up being the loudest track in the mix, so to speak... I have cut many a vocal with someone singing to someone else's guide track.
Being honest about the process taken is most important to me. I believe that once we're doing anything over and above a live performance, anything is game. There is a big difference between leaving out credits, and misrepresenting purposely who did what.
