Two songwriters just learned a valuable life lesson -- Taylor Swift always wins.

A Federal judge ruled Tuesday that a lawsuit brought against Swift accusing her of infringing on a 2001 song called "Playas Gon' Play" was not unique enough to fall under copyright protection.

The judge left it open for the plaintiffs to file an amended complaint in the future, but made it clear that they would need some pretty good evidence to emerge victorious over Swift.

Tay Tay's people were adamant from the beginning that "This is a ridiculous claim and nothing more than a money grab," and it looks like they were right.
