Metallica really got bit in the ass by their fervent desire to sue "pirates" into fucking oblivion for copyright strikes, didn't they

for anyone not aware, and i'm not sure if it's still going, but they played at blizzcon and the official stream muted their concert and played royalty free music over it to avoid copyright strikes

@noiob i mean you say that but in the end it was still Metallica, so how fine could it be

@PsyChuan it was fun to read the chat fighting about whether Metallica had boomer energy

@noiob oh my god they ABSOLUTELY have boomer energy though? they had boomer energy *when i was a kid and the concept of boomer didn't exist in the way it does now*
