I understand and respect everybody's opinions and all, but who the fuck wants their shit downloaded for free? Are you for real man...
May I download all your content that you've shot? I'm also going to send it to all my friends. That will make you a very beloved man (because of the hot content), but not very rich or successful. One day you won't be able to send me all this content though, and everybody will somehow lose.
Say what you will about the way the band dealt with Napster (they could've used some media help ;)), but the the reasoning behind fighting a service like that still stands today.
It's no different than you guys fighting for whatever you put the copyright label on. Metallica just handled things a little differently and came off as very greedy bastards.
