Excellent, first thing I would do is drop them from a massive height.

That little scrote Lars whatshisface ruined my music downloads back in the day.

Sean Parker cashing in on his facebook shares I guess. Or perhaps he will secure funding/loans based on the security of the shares.

Who could forget, metallicops

For me that flash stands as a timeless classic, look forward to it being rolled back out if it happens

I wonder what stance he would take on file share now, if the story is true. Yes how bad metallica were back then when they got the hump when people were bascily stealing from them :rolleyes:
