Metallica released their debut album Kill 'Em All in 1983 |
Fans can buy individual songs from their 10 albums after the band relented on a longstanding refusal to make them available on iTunes and Napster.
In 2001, Metallica settled a legal case against Napster - when it was a file- sharing service - for allowing users to download songs without permission.
On iTunes the songs are available for download in the US and Canada only.
Live tracks
Complete Metallica albums and live concerts have previously been available via other music internet sites and on their own website.
But the band had never allowed digital music services to sell single songs until now.
A statement on the band's website said: "Over the last year or so, we have seen an ever-growing number of Metallica fans using online sites like iTunes to get their music.
"So, in continuing with the tradition of offering our albums for sale online as well as making our live concerts available for download in their entirety we are now offering fans the opportunity to obtain our songs individually."
The band have also made available previously unreleased live tracks along with their back catalogue of albums, from their 1983 debut Kill 'Em All to 2004's Some Kind of Monster.
Mercury Records, Metallica's record label outside the US, was not immediately available for comment on when the songs would be made available on iTunes outside the US and Canada.
Intel takes away AMD bargaining chip with price cuts
Friday, 28 July 2006
The release of Intel's new Core 2 dual-core range of processors combined with price cuts to older products has effectively pulled the rug out from under AMD, which has been fighting desperately to counter Intel's moves in the past week.
AMD has made three major announcements in the past week, including massive price cuts, in an attempt to keep Intel off balance as the market leader continues to receive positive reviews about the new Core 2 range.
However, with the announcement that Intel will cut prices on most of its older range, AMD has no alternative but to follow suit with its current processor range, which will lead to a margin squeezing pricing war.
For Intel, cutting prices on older Pentium products is no big deal. Now that it has a clear performance advantage with Core 2, Intel can afford to maintain its margins on the new range.
The problem for AMD is that its next generation of products are not due to mid-2007. Meanwhile, the smaller rival to Intel is trying to prevent leakage from its recently hard won market share by offering up price cuts and sticky taping processors together in packages such as 4x4.
When AMD announced that it had cracked 20% market share, the company's CEO Hector Ruiz publicly set a goal for the company to reach 30% market share by 2008. The release of Intel's new products makes that goal now seem a remote possibility and AMD may have to instead focus its efforts on keeping its head above the 20% mark.
