Metallica songs worth 99 cents?

My better half has re-organized his site and has begun posting tech news again.

Isn’t he talented?

Anyways, he posted a news item this morning that I found mildly humorous:

Metallica Joining iTunes

Beginning on Tuesday, the band put up four of its records — “Kill ‘Em All,” “Ride The Lightning,” “Master of Puppets” and “…And Justice For All” — for sale on U.S. and Canadian versions of the popular online music retailer.

Fans may buy tracks a la carte for 99 cents or purchase the albums, starting at $9.90.

In a posting on the group’s Web site, the band acknowledged that fans have been increasingly buying music online and said it added some previously unreleased live tracks recorded in Seattle in 1989 to each of the albums to entice those who already own copies.

So, let me get this straight … Napster bad, iTunes good?
