nsane.forums Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 "I figured if there is anybody that has a right to download 'Death Magnetic' for free, it's me," said Lars Ulrich on a recent episode of VH1's "That Metal Show." Lars Ulrich and Metallica have long been the poster child of greedy music artists after having come out so vociferously against Napster and the file-sharing community back in 2000. It angered many because Metallica was already enjoying the fruits of their creative labor with multi-million dollar homes and lavish lifestyles while file-sharers were only looking to save a few dollars on albums they erstwhile couldn't have afforded. Illegal file-sharing never affects concert ticket sales or the number of t-shirts and other merchandising fans purchase, but Metallica didn't seem to care. The millions it already made apparently weren't enough. View: Original Article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
