Question none the worse for
I want to ask what the meaning of the following sentence is:
"A good song is none the worse for being twice sung."

In fact, how to use "none the worse for" to express my idea?
Give me some examples please~~

Default Re: none the worse for
"A good song is none the worse for(~ not at all harmed by or made worse by) being twice sung."

I lost a fortune in the recent financial crisis but I’m none the worse for the experience.
