Yeah, I disagree. The black album made them mainstream.

and why did so many people rush to buy it as soon as it came out? ;)

just to throw in...

I have no problem with file sharing. I think it totally generates interest in music. And, yeah, alot of people will probably buy the cd if they like it enough. So ESPECIALLY for up-and-coming acts, its a very good thing.
The only thing I had problems with was that Napster guy making tons and tons of dough off other people's music and not paying royalties.
If it was just an altruistic venture whereby he set up a system that allows people to share music then no prob but that wasn't the case. This dude got filthy stinking rich and didn't wanna pony up.

Because the album had shorter songs with less complicated structures and then was put on the radio. I think it was put out in '91, so that was way before internet bootlegging anyway.

I disagree with file sharing. For a number of reasons.

but its alright with me. Because no one is stealing music from the good bands.

most of the music i download is to get otherwise impossible to have stuff, and to sample things i have no idea about.

I use the newsgroups .. i've never used any file sharing program.

I'll just go into a certain area, like 89's, 90's or general and download anything that looks interesting or rare.

If I like something I'll track down more CDs by the same band.

I've found a lot of gems this way.

besides that i have 1000's of vinyl, tape, and CD origionals - I've probably supported the music industry more than anyone else i know.
