Metallica’s Lars Ulrich ‘Pirates’ His Own Album

[abyssofdreams]

It’s been nearly nine years since Lars Ulrich became one of the most vocal opponents of Napster and the generation of file-sharers it spawned. Not one to speak about something he has no experience of, Ulrich has just admitted downloading his own album, Death Magnetic, and it was “bizarre”.

You would have thought he would have tried this back in 00' tbh

 

[Erkan]

He is like "What? There is more to do in life than breaking 4 hihats in one show? What's this internet stuff?"

if he thinks that's bizarre, wait till he finds 4chan.

Would have been funny if he got caught by one of these tracker agencies, because if their label (Vertigo/Universum) owns the rights to the recordings (as usual), he wouldn't be allowed to do that (or do they own the rights and have just a distro-deal going on?). Like walking in a store and stealing your own record...

I'm wondering if Lars is also seeding on p2p... haha.

“Wow, this is how it works."

Haha, he's probably got it in his download folder still.

Shame, he should've got the Guitar Hero rip - sounds much better in my opinion!

It's not technically pirating, because he has copyrights for the songs.
