So, what about the Black album? Which side of the equation does it fall on?
The only really good albums were Master Of Puppets and Justice For All (1986 and 1988). But those two albums were soooooo good. The rest of the world just didn't get it until the 90's.
I like a lot of music, but Metallica is one of my favorite groups just from those two albums.

ITMS should get Radiohead, especially OK Computer, its a must.
Some Oasis albums were added last year (the earlier, better ones).
Also Travis should be included, they have the greatest hits but I want the original albums.
PS Does anyone know when tv shows will be coming to the Uk (and other) stores.

If you ask me, it's better that way. I wouldn't like people missing out on the awesome artwork.

This may be sliding off topic but I think it needs to be mentioned that even though that may have been an album of cover songs, Metallica cannot be knocked for their own songs.
How many pop artists today are writing their own music? singing their own lyrics? playing "their own" music?
You may not like the musician's work, but respect the fact that they are in fact producing (not the best word, but I couldn't think of anything better) and executing their own work.
Back on topic: I wonder when they will be releasing new numbers on iTunes sales. I bet its slowing down by now, maybe even flattening out quite dramatically.
Interesting this Aquaman is getting alot of positive reviews. Doesnt sound remotely like my type of show but this could signal a future role for itunes. Giving the shows never picked up by the networks another chance. And if they get enough positive reviews and high download numbers Itunes might be seriously effecting the shows that go on TV.
orrr itunes exclusive shows?

No Metallica on the European or Aussie iTMS yet, because Mercury distribuates the albums there, and they won't let any Metallica songs on there. In America, Atlantic lets the songs be sold.
Agreed. Just saw it and I must say it sucks. The acting was atrocious. The super cheesy dialog was bottom of the barrel steeped in so many cliches.tituspullo said:
There were some scenes that just reeked.
1) Aquaman can swim as fast as a fighter jet flying through the air, yet he doesn't question how he can do it.
2) Aquaboy doesn't seem fazed to have been nearly killed by a siren.
3) Lou Diamond Philips
4) Lousy special effects.
Like with TV shows, Metallica isn't on iTMS for EU and others because of licensing issues-as Mercury is the publishing label there, not Atlantic.
Why would I want to buy Metallica on iTunes? After all I did download all of their music on Napster and Limewire for nothing
I'm a bad little boy

. But I deleted it. The free p2p services for me are just convenient radio. I haven't *listened* to Metallica since my teens - and was not too impressed with their take on p2p years later - but I have downloaded tunes at times for nostalgia's sake. I don't keep them, mind. One listen, the file is sitting comfortably in the trash. I have 'zero' use for grandad heavy metal. And I'm not convinced that spending $0.99 for a song I will delete after I've listened to it is at all a wise thing to do...
Well, I voted negative for this. I s'pose it's good they've kind of gotten over their sour grapes attitude to digitalized music...

Metallica
I understand all the angst towards Metallica with Lars' big mouth during the Napster 1.0 days and I even grew some disgruntlement for them but I have to disagree on one level. The Black Album and Master of Puppers were not the only good albums they made. I agree they are good as I like 'em too, but I feel Load and Reload were good too. Yah they were different, but I feel they were good. I don't really care for some of their latest work but I won't go as far that they suck or anything. I've seen worse bands out there.
I just had to add my two cents on this subject which I'm sure most will hate on here for enjoying a few of their later albums.

Multimedia said:How could they have rejected Aquaman as a series? I'm sure it would have been a huge hit. It would also make for a great motion picture franchise. Crazy.
As a fan of Entourage...
It seems like Aquaman has already been a franchise, albeit one with a large hurdle for the second installment.

Must... have... House. Hell, iTunes copies of the show would still look better than the first season DVD box set. How anyone could **** up a show shot and edited and broadcast in HD THAT much is a mystery to me.

Great show. Just saw my first ep. I think the joke works by releasing the real failed show (or is it real? Maybe is a staged ep?!? Hmmm...
) into the wild just to give it more cred. As for that band that shall remain nameless: i care not. Lars will die before he gets any of my money. You can take that to the bank.
Where I went to college, the Office of Student Activities put on this music competition where either individual students or groups got to do two cover songs and the three best performers won prizes. My senior year, during the competition one of the groups played Metallica songs, but witha twist, they played the songs on cellos. It was awesome! The group's name is "Mecellica." I don't know if they'll put out a CD (I doubt it), but it would be cool if they did.
