That Metallica is one of very few bands who actually own exclusive copy rights to thier own music. Thats' why they can do this under thier onw name and not have to deal with Electra lawyers. They even have exclusive rights to thier orignal Master tapes of all thier albums. A little fact that Electra records does not seem to mind. So to all those Artists that want to follow in Metallicas foot steps you had better own the rights to your materail or yo will be cutting your own throats and helping the sleazy recordget richer instead. I know very few artists today actually get rights to their own music. Most will sign 10 album slavery deals just to get thier foot in the door then later find out the are stuck.
