It's not money they're milking, it's name recognition. Most of them will connect this song with their own work in some way. And you can bet in the following years they are going to sample the shit out of MJ's songs.

That's a pretty pessimistic way of looking at things.
So all the famous movie/music stars going out to the papers paying tribute to MJ is doing it to be in the spotlight? Seriously, if you do then you get people saying you've got alterior motives and if you don't, you're a heartless bastard because no one knows you said anything.... Good luck to them if this is the way people see things.
Also, it'd be milking it if they sampled MJ's music and vocals for the track, but they didn't, they just "spoke" about what MJ did for them, music and the world. You'll find that ANY GENRE in music will have people that use their work to pay tribute to those before them. They aren't milking it, they are just paying respects.
The ones that milking it are the studios that will no doubt release yet another best of soundtrack within a years time and will continue releasing these rehashes and milking MJ's name.
I heard this song yesterday, it's not bad (except that DJ that's puts his advert in throughout the song, I HATE THAT).
The Game ripped it lyrics wise, Chris Brown is a douche and ANYONE could have done his part, Diddy's bit was okay and Boyz II men were good.
It's good that they paid tribute to the man that basically paved the way for most of them to be successful.
Apparently Usher and Timberlake are making one together as well.
