Enslaved download a sheep.

"The Norwegian party Venstre (socialist liberal) has proposed that all illegal file sharing should be legalized. They haven’t put much thought behind the populist proposal and the rationale is basically that since the music is there people should be allowed to consume it freely...

So, in response to this the Norwegian metal band ENSLAVED took a cab out to the Venstre party leader’s farm (he happens to be a sheep farmer) and "downloaded a sheep" with the same kind of motivation: free roaming sheep are available and should be consumed! The sheep was then brought back to the Norwegian parliament, quite an effective statement."

the link above also features a video of the band taking the sheep, and walking it around Oslo, it's all in Norwegian, but the video is hilarious.

Now THAT'S a response to some stupid heads who think that stealing music should be legal.

Only a band this good could make a statement like this. If Metallica tried a stunt like this, people would say "Remember when you made St. Anger? It was so bad that no one wanted to download it anyways!".
