Metallica… you were cool… in the early 90′s
Well looky what we have here… Metallica joining the iTunes music stores? Lars must need a new Ferarri.
Metallica placed itself at the center of the controversy surrounding the dawn of digital music in 2000, when Ulrich appeared at a Redwood City, California, courthouse bearing a list of the names of tens of thousands of Napster users.
Well turns out after all that complaining they did, the money was just to much of a lust to hold out any longer. Welcome back Lars… in celebration I will be downloading their entire Discography from BitTorrent, then I’ll delete all the albums after the black album ;)
Metallica’s move to digital sales, and a move by Detroit rocker Bob Seger earlier this month, leaves only a few holdouts, most notably the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and Radiohead. The Beatles and its Apple Corps record company have engaged in a long standoff with Apple over the use of the apple logo and Apple’s ability to sell music. A British court ruled in favor of Apple in that dispute in May.
Pfft…. like there is a RadioHead fan out there that hasn’t already downloaded all their albums anyway!
