I always feel like it's okay so long as you're only using a small snippet and it's obvious you are attempting to create new art out of existing art and most importantly, you are not making any money off of it.

I'd have no problem with someone taking a snippet of a song I made and collaging it with others so long as they weren't trying to make money with it or claiming it was their own work.

It's an interesting question, what do we own? When does an artist or creator lose control over what they've made?
