I think the reason is the Internet. Before it you had to know the song he was copying from. Nowadays it is very likely someone will point it out to you in a forum, under a video. And you can immediately listen and compare.
Back in the old days it was often times the Bon Jovi song you heard first and when you by chance found similarities somewhere, you first had to check which song was released first.
