All right, this is getting absurd. With the advent of Gnutella do we really need to watch as Metallica continues their war against Napster? I was never a big Metallica fan to begin with, but with their anti-progressive stance on "free" music I have turned into a full blown Metallica hater. So what are they going to try next, have everyone register the content of their hard-drives with the major record lables so that they can monitor any illicit traffic? Give me a break, I just wish that Metallica would curl up and die, we have enough bastards in Congress trying to restrict our freedom on the internet. It used to be these guys were good old fashion rockers with a huge following in the blue collar, beer drinking community. Just goes to show that enough money can corrupt any soul. There is an expression that I heard once that I find oddly appropriate in this situation. "If Metallica where on fire, I wouldn't piss on them to put it out."
