Exacttly.  If they'd talked to the stones before
release, they likely would have gotten the riff for a
fraction of what they wound up paying, if they had to
pay at all.  The Stones had to go after them, or risk
setting a precedent that would lead to more copying
and sampling of their material without permission.  I
saw an interview with teh Beastie Boys recently and
they talked about how they contacted the original
artist for every single sample that goes onto an
album, no matter how small, unless it is so distorted
and warped as to not represent the original material
in any way any longer.
