        So I’ll be that guy: the recording industry “destroyed” napster. Not some band. And let’s be clear here- this was just the next battle in the corporate war that existed as long as recording devices have. It wasn’t new, novel, or even the end of music sharing. In fact thanks to the Streisand effect and some extremely bad press filesharing got a boost.

        Yeah… there were a number of bands that acted as the face of that campaign - Metallica being one of them. I’m not sure if you know how the recording industry works but if your label says jump: you did. They were no exception. Let’s not pretend that most labels weren’t financially motivated to mislead their artists, either.

        If you don’t like the band: cool bro. But I gotta tell you statements like that make you come off as some stupid, uninformed, hipster cunt.
