  I agree with you, but there are lists where I'm a minority in this opinion.

  The question arises, when music is considered art, whether sampling other
  people's stuff and making your own song from it, is art as well. It boils
  down to the fact that art is hard to define.

  Personally, I want to make my own songs, or parts, or phrases, or whatever.
  I'm going to expand my EX5 to full sampler specs, but for using other
  waveforms and instruments, and mangling them (something the EX5 is excellent
  at), not to sample loops.

  Like I said, it's a personal opinion. However, since (almost) all of this
  people use a synth that definitely can't sample other people's stuff, I
  think I'm not as alone as on a, say, sampler mailing list.
