Prince - Maverick dvd

Just got this DVD from Amazon - bad copy as the audio is totally out of sync with the vision so makes it quite hard to watch. Only watched the first disc so far. Quite interesting, some video/performances but mostly talking his issues with wb. I wouldn't be at all surprised if they didn't have something to do with it. I'm not sure quite how I feel about it. I think if you were a casual fan you'd get the impression prince wasn't really all that great the way they talked through his albums, but maybe that's just me. I guess I'll have to watch the 2nd disc to fully make my mind up. As I said quite interesting.

Don't pay money for bootlegs.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

Naked in summertime is great. Just wondering why are you all crying about if something is bootleg or not. Are you only happy to see jayz get money or are you a long lost family member. Now prince is dead and he is not going to profit.I do not get the constant whinging about weather a bootleg or not just happy to see the stuff out there.Comes across as being jealous of who makes a profit or not.

???? jealous and crying. I was telling the op about the bootlegs on amazon. I never said don't buy them it's up to the person.

Proving they are hit and miss. Take your chances by all means.

I gotta say nowadays I got 2 kids and 2 jobs so my free time for searching for boots that are not available at the few spots I know of is limited. Therefore I have now turned back the clock to the 90'a and depending will now pay for certain boots. And should the Fam release it officially I will of course get that as well.

This has been a long running irony among Prince fans...

"Don't pay for bootlegs" is a stock term, and it's fine so long as fans are able to communicate. ie "Don't pay for that bootleg - just download it from www.website.com.

BUT - On Prince.org we're not allowed to talk about where fans can download bootlegs for free... So many fans just end up buying them, then are told they shouldn't have bought it... which they wouldn't have, if other fans had told them where else they could get it.

As for the profits - Any idiot can rip a show from youtube, burn it to DVD then sell em for $20 a pop on ebay. THAT is what fans object to more than anything. Fans being ripped off by someone SELLING bootlegs which (in the eyes of fans) should be traded rather than sold.
