Everyone in high school hated Metallica and I didn't even know why. It's because the kids downloaded free music and Metallica killed it. Things were different in those days. It was common to record songs onto cassette tapes straight off the radio on a boombox and record tv shows and movies onto vhs tapes from live broadcasts to keep forever. It was your right for sitting through the ads and possibly paying for cable I guess. Now we live in the streaming subscription era where you pay monthly for access or have ads to have access for free but you don't own it. Just different values or the Wild West before it was tamed. No one cared if you recorded a song on a tape off the radio and gave it to a friend, but corporate interests kicked into gear when someone could share the song they recorded with 100,000 of their closest friends.
