To clarify my original post (as I didn't mention any animations in
particular because I hadn't had enough time to investigate, and didn't want
to go accusing someone who had made the music personally or had permission
to use it, etc), I was referring to the entries:

Rio (amc.mpg)

and

Alexander Artemenko (throttle.mpg)

Both of which appear to be using copyright material for which they haven't
stated they have permission to use or ownership of.
