Well, I think Taylor Swift and a whole bunch of other musicians are up in arms about their music on YouTube andwant Congress to update the digital music act. Does this not sound familiar?

Is that not what Prince would do? It used to make me sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

mad when Prince would pull his videos. Now I am really mad becase the law does allow for payment of for Music videos created by the artist not for videos of 3 year old kids singin Purple Rain so bad that its cute. The law does also allow the artist to ban their work from YOU Tube.

How was Prince so far ahead of his peers on these things???BUT NO WILL??????

I know the songs and audio, the artists should get paid for. But I thought music videos and interviews with artist were free. I mean when I see music videos on tv, or artists being interviewed or perform on tv, its free. I didn't know they were going to make sure we have to pay for music videos, when i can watch it on tv for free. I was looking for a prince video on cable, but there is none, only hd, I wonder why?

-// I think he did not have a will because he did not want to face the fact that he was getting old. You also have to sit down and decide who gets what when you die who knows what sort of feelings he had toward his siblings he took care of them but maybe out of obligation. I also believe that he may have believed he was going to beat the pain killers and live for a few more years.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard of.

Use some critical thinking skills and explain why you think my opinion is dumb? When you sit down to do a will especially at Prince' s age you are facing the fact that you are getting old and will die one day. Everyday when he looked in the mirror he saw a face that looked 45, he did not believe in wearing a watch or celebrating his birthday.

I do not think Prince had any plan for getting older (he had no will so that is my proof) or winding down his carreer despite health issues.

Oh I am getting ready to prepare my will and I am going thru some emotions about getting older and getting prepared so I know from my own experience how this feels.

A lot of people don't do wills or make funeral arrangements until they get old. May not be the wise thing to do but it is very common. I was shocked to find out that my parents hadn't done so until after my Dad's younger brother passed away, leaving his estate in a complete mess--a nightmare that's still going on years later.
