OT – The Mighty Metallica Now Available on iTunes

The day has come…Metallica finally decided that their fans could buy their songs individually. Their albums have been available online, but they didn’t want to sell their songs individually. I’m not sure what prompted the change, but for me this was excellent news.

I have enjoyed listening to Metallica ever since high school and I had all of their albums. Through the years I’ve sold them for one reason or another and I didn’t want to go out and buy them again. Especially not with our financial situation right now. I just listened to the radio and hoped to catch one of their songs here and there.

But yesterday I saw the news, hopped onto iTunes and downloaded my 4 favorite Metallica songs, including the ever-so-awesome bass solo by Cliff Burton. I haven’t heard that in a long time and it was music to my ears.

Thank you Metallica for finally joining iTunes.

    I heard that they did it “at the urging of their fans” on TV. Yeah, right, they SO listened to their fans when they were against Napster.

    I didn’t really keep up with the whole Napster thing. I didn’t even get into downloading music until iTunes came out. But I remember them being against things. I’m just glad I don’t have to buy the whole album for a few songs :)

    They probably figured out that they might actually make some money by doing this. People like us aren’t as likely to go out and buy whole albums, but we’ll buys songs. Hey, every $4 is better than none!

    I think they figured out how much money they might be losing on the whole deal. Nothing like a little revenue loss to make you rethink a sitch ya know?
