This is a tough one, because they are not directly making money from the copyrighted material.

Isn't this a bit same as using short samples of somebodys song in your own song or somebody getting inspired from somebodys artwork and creating something similar.

If you're sampling music you aught to be compensating the licence holder unless it's public domain or your work is under a fair use exception.
