Nope, as I said, I can't blame them... I just don't think they were the best choice to be the loudest voice.
As I said, it was as if they turned their backs on all those who were there from day one.

Those people, including myself, still paid money for their albums because we loved their music and support them... but even if someone paid for for their album AND downloaded so much as a single Metallica track.... they'd find Metallica's attorney's at their door with lawsuit in hand.
