:17:01
The band said that over 350,000 people
are downloading its music for free.
:17:07
A group of former Metallica fans
staged a protest at the courthouse.
:17:11
l don't want anything to do
with Metallica anymore.
:17:14
I'm gonna be trashing their CDs.
l took all my CDs,
:17:17
and I'm gonna be destroying them.
:17:20
Are you proud of what you achieved
with the whole Napster thing?
:17:22
Are you proud, in hindsight,
of what you pulled off?
:17:26
Being the most hated man
in rock-'n'-roll?
:17:29
Yeah, that was my goal.
"l got an idea."
:17:32
"I'm kind of bored this summer.
Everything's going a little too well."
:17:35
"Let's see. I want to turn myself
into the most hated,
:17:39
fucking asshole
in rock-'n'-roll, yeah."
:17:43
Like, good afternoon. My name is, you
know, like, Lars Ulrich, from Metallica.
:17:47
l worked for years
to get where I am today.
:17:50
Me and my buddy, like, James Hetfield
here, have shed blood, sweat,
:17:54
and motherfucking beer,
to get where we are today.
:17:56
Beer! Good!
:17:58
Who do you think you are? I mean,
just, you know, because you, like,
:18:01
made us rich,
you think you can get free stuff?
:18:04
Songs that we spent
upwards of, you know, like,
:18:07
24 to 48 hours writing and recording?
:18:10
Our team of lawyers and
researchers have your names,
:18:13
and you Napster users,
we'll see you in jail getting gang-raped.
:18:18
Money, good! Napster, bad!
:18:26
Some minutes, I have all this strength,
and I can stand there and just go,
:18:30
"Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!"
:18:33
"I'm bulletproof, it doesn't matter.
l got Hetfield and Hammett,
:18:36
and we're a team, and fuck you."
Do you know what I mean?
:18:38
And then five minutes later,
it means nothing,
:18:41
and I just become really vulnerable.
:18:48
We never sat there and thought about
where Napster was gonna end up.
:18:54
We never sat there and thought about
what shots we were gonna take,
:18:57
we just sat there and thought about,
this was something we had to do.
