. Very interesting news! I'm curious as to why the family is using Prince's Twitter account? Also, no one from Prince's family ever clarified the origin of that tweet (thanx 4 all the luv) that came after Prince had passed. .

. We may never know what is really going on... . THIS admission from a person who stated whatever is "in darkness eventually comes into the light"... -//For legal reasons we are not going to know what is going with the LLC. We will not know about financial matters concerning the estate because the court has sealed financial transactions. We will one day know more about Prince's death one day because the files concerning the investigation into his death will be unsealed that information is in the dark now but will come to light. Now finish working on reading skills. | |

Nope just a fan. Have never worked at Paisley nor met anyone from his family.  But you do live in Chanhassen? In Miami people rent out spare bedrooms to tourist. You could do that for Prince fans coming in to visit PP. ( If you have an extra bedroom) I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant. All he said was, sometimes it snows in April. - book D.M.S.R. | |

I think the family is upset about this and may have wanted to stick with Tidal and self administer the rights they way Prince was doing. Who knows once the family takes over they may get their way down the road. It's possible that they can negotiate a better deal. Anyway I hope his music comes to other platforms. That way a whole new generation of potential fans can experience his music. I would assume they can stipulate that free (ad-supported) services don't get his music. I think we need to disabuse ourselves of the notion that every business decision Prince made in his career was the right one. He went nearly 20 years without a major label and pretty much all of that music isn't available anywhere but Tidal. How many people are missing out on great music because of how stingy he was with distribution? Also it was reported that WB wanted to release the deluxe PR album before the HnR albums as they thought it would generate buzz/interest in Prince again which might make people more likely to check out his new work. Prince said no. IMO WB wasn't always wrong and it was his time with WB that allowed him to be without a major label for 20 years. [Edited 11/3/16 4:42am] There is no way for you to know what Prince's future would have been without Warners. I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder.

Yes, it would be good because more people will hear the music but you realize that the estate will be lucky if they get half a penny a stream. Maybe even less once Universal get their cut. I just wish Prince had put it all on Tidal and lived to get some money out it. He really moved so slow in the last two years of his life with some of the things he could have been doing with Tidal. I am still puzzled by this. He could have done live concerts and put all the unreleashed stuff on Tidal two years ago. [Edited 11/3/16 4:46am] Something is better than nothing though. People that are using other services aren't going to go to Tidal just to get Prince's music. Ive had Tidal since 6/7/2016. I've never listened to one song on there that wasn't Prince. I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant. All he said was, sometimes it snows in April. - book D.M.S.R. | |

I was using Spotify and switched to Tidal purely for Prince's music and nothing else. If Tidal lose the rights to stream Prince's music I will cancel my subscription. You got that right. No Prince, screw you Tidal I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant.

Isn't that the truth? We are browbeating each other over information none of us is privy to. I have to say I hope ... I HOPE ... Prince is not merchandised within an inch of his life over the coming years. I saw a Michael Jackson shower curtain on line this morning. Please let us not see Prince on bathroom accessories down the road. What? You haven't seen the Prince shower curtain?? That's been out since May ! I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant. All he said was, sometimes it snows in April. - book D.M.S.R. | |

[Edited 11/4/16 13:19pm] I wonder if whoever is messing with Prince's Twitter account today is the same person who deleted Prince's tweets about picketing Warners I asked Prince what he was planning to do.

. They should stop doing that. They should have a seperate account. The fact that no one had the code to open the Vault, yet they have his password for his twitter account? Hmmm....okay.

// Prince probaly had an employee handling his Twitter and since tapes were stolen I can under stand why he only had the combination to the vault. | |
