Isn't considered cheating but it is at the edge.
If you just listen to the music at your home, it's ok. If you go to the show and the performance is poor, you feel you're missing something. If the singer is just dubbing, you'll feel fooled if you expected the real thing.
Some say that even in this case what's worth is the performance, the "experience". But if you find out that they were stunts with pre-record music, your "experience" vanishes.
Cheating is one of those things that depends on your expectation.
- bambax 5y agoIt's considered cheating when for example the "singer" is not doing the singing, and it's kept a secret. There was a big scandal in France in 2006-2010 when the public learned that a 1977 hit record "ça plane pour moi" by Plastic Bertrand, was in fact sung by somebody else; see: https://www.expatica.com/be/uncategorized/plastic-bertrand-admits-not-singing-pop-classic-72337/ https://www.expatica.com/be/uncategorized/plastic-bertrand-a...
