if this line is not hyprocritcal then i don't know what is:

taken from jukebox with a heartbeat "do the people really know what they want if u never give them what they need"

well, people would like 2 c a website that offers them a true insight 2 the music and per4mances. but no, legal heads go after the fanbase. smart move buddy

it's been said, "without u, there would b no us" turnabout is fair play my friend.

Me too!!! Every now and then I go to the website just to see if HQ has worked out some arangement with Prince and company to make videos available online.

The legal threats sure have made some funny banners happen over there! Check it out.

I'm Venus over there. I think I've made about eight or nine posts since I joined, which was a few months after I joined the org. The "other artists" section over there is absolutely horrible. Housequake ain't got shit on the org.

Housequake had more actual info on Prince business, recordings, pics, videos, and news.

maybe he is more concerned with where it lead to rather than where it was....

kinda like wiping away the footsteps within the snow.

sometimes you don't need to know where he was but rahter than where he is...

ya know?

somewhere on earth.

I agree. It's the more "academic" site. Prince shouldn't smack it down at all, because it's a lot better than his crappy official site. Actually, it's a lot better than the previous NPGMC site was too.

biting the hand that feeds you does sound about rigth

I have loads of videos of Prince's that are official releases i would like them on DVD stuff like SOTT SoV as the quality is getting worse and when i have friends come round that could be fans to be they would prefer seeing prince perform and not look at a jumpy picture.

I have over 600 links 2 Prince related sites. Some1's got their work cut out 4 'em..

Words of Advice....Muses....Only study hatred, they never learned how to do that skill.

can we settle the record for about the 9 billionth time, its not Prince it is his people who are doing this, yes probably something to do with his instruction, but shit all they are doing is in his best interest. If this is what he chooses that's fine, it is not attacking his fans or things like tha.

it is his people doing their jobs what they are paid to do, why must you people think Prince owes you something, Prince doesn't owe you folks a damn thing,be happy with what you have and stop looking a gift horse in the mouth, because to be honest that shit is disrespectful and ungrateful instead of acting like whiny children go out and do something more useful.

I'm not sure if it's the feeling he owes us something but it's like the Elvis thing ... what he gives to the world and for us who love it we always want more. He has done so much and only released 1/4 of it and the stuff that was released we can't find or it gets deleted. Keep it real...it is Prince doing "IT" because no one does anything without Prince's Ok or Sig. but like you said...it's his business if he wants to release it or if he doesn't. Maybe he has something instore for the future.

Why do people get upset if they don't like the thread someone started?

prime said:

im not upset just merely stating a valid point

IAintTheOne said:

Right ON

Prince is acting like a frustrated, grumpy old control freak. Maybe he needs to get laid more often so he can relax a little instead of being such a tight ass when it comes to releasing his material. Does he really hate his fans, or is he just turning into a weird, little old man?

I thinks it's a shame.

IAintTheOne said:

Come on, it's definitely Prince doing it. He can't deny having full knowledge of what they're doing in his name. And what he's doing is not very well thought out--what other major artist doesn't want their free promotional videos on YouTube or fan sites? The same ones we were able to watch for years on TV? No other performer is suing to stop fans from watching them.

IAintTheOne said:

I've heard the rumor of the use of a housequake.com photo (with a watermark) on the new tourbook that Prince and one other person are credited with designing. That sounds kind of odd, considering the logo is clearly visible. Why do you think this happened?
