I believe back then they thought suing Napster was the best possible course of action. I don't really mind them doing so and can understand their motives. These days 90% of MP3 files are shared on torrents and can be downloaded for free, which is not really good for small bands wanting to earn some money off their work.

And if those bands signify your pinnacle of musical accomplishments you must not know very many bands huh? And as for what I personally like, yes to fast yes to heavy, but most important to me is LYRICAL CONTEMT! Above all else to me it’s the word that count
Hell I don’t know if everything you listen to sux but U2 sure doses and I quote Homer Simpson ‘” they’re the suckist sucks who ever suxed.” Oh, brother preteen? You would never be able guess my age.

That's one place my collection hasn't stretched out into... early metallica - I really should check some of their early stuff out, considering everyone most definitely regards their earliest stuff their heyday...

Oh yes, had they stopped after "...And Justice For All" they would have been a damn near perfect metal band in my opinion. However that has not been the case.

There is a difference between fanbase and musicians. Fanbase 'rejuvenates' itself, new kids start listening to the old stuff and expect all of the albums to sound the same. Musicians don't. They age and with maturity they tend to look for different styles..and guess what, if it happens to a rock/metal band, they'll get critisized, called sellouts/washouts etc..

I think it depends. There are some bands who change a lot and still manage to retain their fans. The key is making sure that you are still making good music as you change.

Yeah but the definition of "good music" is very subjective. As I said, I really liked Load/Reload especially what James did with the vocals ie. the arrangments etc. but some people hated it plain and simple and trashed it all over the internet.

Same could be said about St. Anger. Some people like the raw sound some people were like, wtf?

I don't think you can keep all of your fanbase unless you're not willing to take any chances and play it safe and even that doesn't guarantee a success.

i like Metallica allot and the fact that they sewed Napster dose not affect me in anyway shape or form i don't care about that all i car about is the music and how good it is.

I perosnally wasn'tr a big fan of Metallica but St. Anger was the first of their albums I paid attention to in a big way - I liked the whole rpemise of the albums lyrical concepts, and the new sound was raw and refreshing in my opinion... and for some reason I have a deep and affecting love of albums that piss off a band's die hard fanbase.... i dunno what it is... I guess I am just a bastard underneath it all.... hahahahahaha
