No it's still ridiculous because that remains effectively impossible. Think of this analogy: it would be like running into someone with your exact same genes, but who isn't your twin. Genomes can be seen as a series of bits, and they're sufficiently large that getting the same sequence twice cannot happen by accident.
Furthermore it's a misunderstanding to say that people attach value to a 'large number', the value is in the effort it took to arrive at it and the fruits it can give in the context of society. The sequence of bits by itself is meaningless because it only becomes a song or a movie using the right interpretation & context.
