If Prince set up a site called something like Princetube.com....

would u pay to see his videos and performances....????

to think the only video collection available is the one released at the time of the Hits/B-sides with only a few videos on it.....

I would rather he release them on dvd or on his own youtube type site that dodgy bootlegs taped off mtv or something.... sad

'If Prince set up a site called something like Princetube.com....' he'd fuck it up some way, some how!.

Let's be honest most of would pay, it would be no different in principle to the NPGMC.

i'd buy a DVD collection. i don't know that i'd spend money on video files, especially if it had that licence nonsense like the NPGMC purchases that i can't play anymore. of course, if he tried to pawn off some live footage i'd never seen before, my fammy ass would be whipping out the credit card like everyone else, so who am i kidding? lol

Yes I would. As long as you got to download and keep them, I think he should licence and sell all of his official, bootleg, and live performances from the last 30 years!!!!

I still don't understand why...Movie theatres don't keep concerts running live satellite shows for everybody...I'd rather go to a theatre and pay twenty bucks to see a live concert, than stay at home.

Hell naw. I'd rather he release the videos on DVDs. Not everyone can afford a computer and even some that have one, can't afford an internet service that is high speed enough to show videos.

I would probably do it if he put some new content or unreleased stuff on there. If it's stuff that we already have seen or/and have, then no. I'd think I'd rather have a DVD of this stuff.

the only way i'd pay him is if he would release some product
for me to actually own.

like a dvd or a cd. not something on a dodgy website that he
would discontinue 2 years down the line.

we've seen it before and no doubt it would happen again.

only way i'm ever gonna buy anything directly online from p
is if he puts up stuff in DRM free, 320kbps or flac format.

but better yet, sell actual cd's. for every physical cd he
sells he can give you an immediate download link to mp3s of
the music you can play until your disc arrives.

i don't understand why everything always has to be so damn
hard with him. it seems like he wants to release sonds and
videos and yet he doesn't want to let go. everything has to
be restricted by some warped, unrealistic vision that he is
the controler of the universe.

if he sets up shop again online he should seriously look at
what other people are doing and how they set things up.

but i guess that will never happen since there are always
those who defend prince's every move and start shouting we
should thank prince for every crumb from his table and we
should never question his actions. lol.

but yeah, to answer your question, something like princetube
would be right up his street. charge people an admission fee
of 20 dollars or let them pay per video they watch. but they
can't download it, they can only watch it on this site. and
the videos will all be copies from tapes the people sent in
for his "ways of the pharaoh" project.

and fams will still be shouting "prince is so sexy in the
dolphin video. i can still see the mtv logo, half blurred
up in the corner and there's a lot of static coming thru,
but at least we get to see the video and prince only charged
us 2 dollars every time we watch it. prince = jesus. but
with a sexy ass lolzzzz pfrelaknrelrk"

joris sleeping


joris snoozing


joris hanging with his girlfriend

smile

the dog on the left in the last pic is a jack russel. joris is supposed
to be a jack russel too, although he got mixed with something bigger as
you can see lol. it's a mix between jack russel and german shepperd lol
but strangely it works very well and makes for a calm, relaxed jack who
nips your ankles once in a while

why? you have a dog too?

Not sure if Joris' girl is legal yet, but anyhow, both are lookers! Love the snoozing.

There are many artists and even record companies who have official Youtube and/or Myspace video pages....and it's all free to watch online. I think Universal still has "Black Sweat" and "Fury" on Youtube as an official vids.

How is it that P is getting the old videos and TV apearances taken off these sites? I thought the record co owned the rights to the videos for promotional use and don't the TV networks and/or production co's have the rights to their own shows?

But, I'd pay for a DVD of live shows or videos.
