He did the same with 3121. It will die before August ends like 3121 did. He may do a high profile appearance here and there, but it won't boost sales too much.

I dont think his plan was ever to promote the album Instead i believe he was using the album itself as an advertising method for the shows he's doing. I heard he aims to make around 15 million from the london shows alone. Considering this, who needs to go on a cheap chat show to flog an album?

I wonder if Sony is pissed? Hasn't been the same since he did the 3 million album deal. You know what I say? F Sony!

U can't really count Musicology as selling 3 million. It probably only sold about 500,000. The majority of those were concert givewaways.

So what?! Can't you just enjoy the music without being so damn greedy? No wonder Prince doesn't want to be bothered with his fans, He can't satisfy you!

I am. Doesn't make me any difference if he sells 10 copies or a million. I still love his music and will continue to buy it. Besides, do you really think he would continue to make music it he wasn't making money off of it? He may not sell in the millions anymore, but I'm pretty sure he still makes well.
