. There is no content, right? It's just a registered domain. Probably one of those stupid squatters who hold domain names for random. .

Yeah I was just curious if Prince actually owned it. Do squatters usually make their registrant information private?

Yes. I've purchased domain names and put them up for sale on godaddy. I don't know about being a squatter though? If I buy it then it's mine for the duration of the length of time of my purchase. I've also let domain names expire. People do this all the time. And yes I keep my information private when selling domain names. As for Prince.com we have no way of knowing who exactly ownes it. ~DD55

It could be a real prince that owns it.

I don't know. But they have ©2017 PRNFamily at the bottom of the website, so I'm making the assumption it is.

I read that he alone owns that name and all that goes with it. Is that true? Does anyone know?

Looks like Omarr did a q&a on Twitter. I wonder what the exciting plans are. Also is PRNFamiy really a registered trademark?

What I hope is that because the estates owns the post WB material and it appears to be free of a licensing agreement they can continue were he left out and put out some post WB material on NPG records while the older stuff is still being catalogued.

It would be great if the estate could get at least one more project out this year.

But who speaks on behalf of the estate? Troy? Do all the siblings have to agree in order for anything to be done? I’m assuming with Paisley Park Graceland doesn’t need estate approval to do things?

No sure of all the details but I think in most things Comerica makes final decisions with family input, or majority rules, hence the big deal about the 4 vs 2 before it went 3 vs 3. Troy being Comerica's advisor.

morningsong speaks the truth.

Big plans in the works.......Prince Dreams realized ? etc....humm...i'm guessing > second Single & Album by TIKA....what Else !

'BIG' for me:

- no shitty compressed remastering job but real quality remaster with actual dynamics in jewelcase

- unreleased material: unknown versions, better versions, unknown songs, etc not sounding as if they came from a compact cassette

- if we're talking video: bluray of all unreleased video material at max reasonable resolution and bitrate

- any writings by his hand (memores? diary etc)

- photos like the Steve Parke book

- ...

.

So puhlease let 'the estate' (or whoever) make noise without delivering these goods.

I'm going to venture a guess and say that those who play well with others and aren't here to troll nor throw shit at P will not have any issues. It has been that way for YEARS here so don't let those who don't play nicely twist things in your head. I'll admit I've missed a few thread pulls the last few days but regardless, there had to have been some kind of crap going on if they disappeared.

I agree. One bad apple spoils the whole bunch. I just wish people here could be more respectful and not insult one another if they disagree on a topic. Name calling is not necessary. This is Prince's house; show respect. Peace!

I've been around here for a very long time and I don't care what names anyone calls me, but disrespect toward Prince really really pisses me off. Even if someone has something to say that may not go over well, there's a way to say things to get controversial points across that won't anger others. People here do know how to discuss and over the years, there's been much said that didn't always go over well. In the last couple of months or so, there's been some seriously mean shit being said with nothing to back it up. Trolling Certain people seem to dislike Prince, it's apparent in most of their posts as it seems they look for opportunities to vilify him for no reason other than causing trouble. They are not welcome here. Agree with you, show some respect.

Judge approved nullification of UMG deal. This doesn’t include merchandise and musi publishing. http://variety.com/2017/m...202495369/

There was a brief discussion about the nullification of the UMG deal that took place on July 13. However, I did not see any discussion regarding the documents "Notice of Filing of Order and Order" that Carver County District Court filed on July 14, 2017 on The Minnesota Judicial Branch webpage for the PRN Estate: http://www.mncourts.gov/I...elson.aspx

.

What I find interesting about the 7/14 Order is that it summarizes the proceedings that ended in the nullification of the Estate and NPG Music's $31 million deal with UMG. I don't have any formal legal training and find many of the documents relating to the PRN Estate to be confusing due to preponderance of jargon (which is understanable because these are legal documents). (The only type of law on which I can speak with any kind of competence is special education law because I am a special education teacher.)

.

Anyhow, the 7/14 Order summerizes the evidence and conclusions that caused the Eide Court to nullify the Estate/NPG/UMG deal, and does so in language that, in my opinion, most people with a bachelor's degree can understand. For those who are so inclined, I think that it's worth reading the 7/14 Order.

.

Also, a question: Did the Court ever post an Order or a copy of the actual contract for $31 million among the Estate-NPG-UMG, on or around January 31, 2017? (I assume that the contract would have a lot of redactions.) I've looked for it on the PRN Estate website and can't find it.

The above link is a bad so I dont know what you are referring to.

All business agreeements are sealed by the Court.
