Of course this doesn't address the copyright debate per melodies. Regarding melodies, there are many that similar that never get prosecuted. We have all heard a song which sounds almost identital to another. The George Harrison thing is a bit scary because its essentially three notes that were the same ("My Sweet Day" and "One Fine Day") - but I think George's song was more intersting what it did with it (the "really wanna a...." part). All of pop music walks a thin line between to being too similar to other music and uncommerical/unpopular.
By the way, did you notice that Destiny's Child "Survivor" uses the same chords as Gansta Paradise which is a rip of Stevie Wonder's Pasttime Paradise?
