Death-By-Digital Metallica Collection

I can be honest and say this is my least favourite album of theirs.  I still collect it because I have a problem.  It is a great album none the less, just not what I look for in "Metallica". This is more or less all of the songs that didn't make it on to Load, for they were both written at the same time.
