Updates & Headlines: (2000)
Thursday, December 28, 2000 - In the recent Palace Chat with Jonathan Davis, the front man was asked about his reaction to Fred Durst's magazine quote that Limp had surparssed Korn.

  • Jonathan recently spoke with CNN about their feelings toward the Mp3 sharing program Napster...

    "We have kinda kept quiet about the whole situation, but I feel that the matter does need to be discussed because artists spend a lot of time on their music and spend a lot of money recording it, and for someone to just download it for free deprives us of making an honest living, and it is really not fair to anyone. We [Korn] are well set for life and so is Metallica. We as musicians need to speak on behalf of all musicians who might not be as respected. No artists out there are in support of Napster. Limp Bizkit got paid to do that tour, and had everything paid for, so they took the offer, so would a lot of artists. I have spoken with Fred and he is against the whole situation, and we as musicians need to make it known that we in no way support file "sharing," if that is what you like to call it."
