npgmc downloads

I got an email about npgmc selling new power soul cd for 77 cents to members and 99 cents to non members, and I figure this is a good deal to add to my growing collection.
but I can't find it... so #1 does anyone know about this and can tell me how to get to it.
i already checked the download store and nps cd was not one of the selections.

also can you burn the downloads to a cd and will it play on any player... i read something about license preventing you from sharing the downloads from one computer to another.

thanks

They removed the NPS album clapping and replaced it with the "Call My Name" video.

It wasn't $.77 for members, it was $7.77 for the album download, sans artwork and lyrics (and maybe the hidden track, considered by many to be the best on the album).

You can buy a new copy cheap cheap cheap here (and a jillion other places too):

'zactly!! wink You can find almost everything he's released online, new or used. Obviously a lot of the really old, out-of-print Paisley Park stuff is way hard to find for a reasonable price, anyway. But you can find really cheap copies of stuff that's more recently out of print, like Gold or Crystal Ball or NPS (is it considered out of print? I guess probably it is, at least technically, but it seems like there are a BUNCH of copies still out there).

Anyway. The artwork for NPS is kinda cheesy but I actually like it quite a bit. Hope you enjoy!

They're also selling hard copies of NPS over at NPGMC, if anyone actually needs it. I think that they might have opened up all of the Larry, Chaka, NPG box sets, cause they have those separate CDs too. $5 each.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

Oh yeah? A hard copy of NPS for $5? Now that's a reasonable price for once. Of course once you add in the shipping it's not fantastic but it's a full album, so it's still reasonable.

Man I miss the days of reasonable prices.

Half.com smile I got mine for $1.25 plus $2.79 media mail shipping. For some reason my origional CD was cracked when I went to play it again.

how about this:

NPGMC offers downloads in MWA-files. I think this sucks since I am a computer illiterate and I do not know how to convert them into mp3's so I can play them in my iPod and iTunes.....except when I first burn them on cd and then import them into iTunes, even that is a pain..... Can anyone help me out??

Thanks!
