Rage Against The Machine Surprised At Napster Ban

from the oops dept

The band Rage Against the Machine was just as surprised as its fans when they found out that people caught trading their music on Napster had been banned from the service. The band has spoken out in the past in favor of Napster, and claim they’re working on fixing the situation. I can’t believe that a band’s management would make a decision like that without contacting the actual band first. Just goes to show how messed up the music industry is these days.
