you know, my whole outlook on the downloading music thing is that it is no different than copying tapes for your friends back in the 80's. Sure you can get more music than tapes could ever give you but I don't see this hurting anyone. The music industry has been shafting all of us for years and for them to sue a 12 year old girl, is absolutely petty and ridiculous.
In case you don't know, music companies make their money off of CD's, DVD's, etc; whereas the bands make their money on the road and selling merch that way. Metallica was foolish to get in the middle of things when all the internet trading was doing was making them more accessible than ever.
To hell with RIAA and Metallica.
