o Metallica to Finally Sell Songs on Apple's iTunes Store

New York - Metallica, a band vocal in its opposition to free file-sharing and late to digital services, finally ended its boycott of Apple's iTunes Store on Wednesday, agreeing to license songs from four of its early albums to be sold a la carte on the service, Billboard reported. Full Metallica albums have previously been available for purchase on other digital services, but the band's opposition to selling single tracks put it at odds with Apple's retail policy. The songs from "Kill 'Em All," "Ride the Lightning," "Master of Puppets" and "…And Justice for All" are currently available only from the U.S. and Canadian iTunes Stores, in light of an ongoing dispute with Mercury, the label that distributes the band's albums outside of North America.
