At any rate, I don't think Metallica should be overrated because they had one really awful album.
All of their early stuff rocked.

I should hug you for that
I will agree that in comparison to what Metallica usualy does, St. Anger kind of sucked. I still enjoyed the album, but it's nothing in comparison to their older material. I love Rob's bass sound, but they really nead Jason Newstead back with the band. Just because they made a different album, it doesn't take away from what they've already done. As far as all the heat they got from fans about Napster, I'd be pretty pissed off too if I saw my work being posted for free without my permission. You have to realize, being a band is their job.
If no one buys their music, they don't really get anything out of it. I'll probably get a reply with, "But they already have enough money.". Think about the brand new bands coming up today. If people downloaded all of their music, instead of paying for it, the record labels would lose intrest in them due to no profit. Then another good band would just slip through the cracks.
