Cheers for the heads up.


How come you're the first to notice this? Thought you hated Prince? Camping on his website, or just stumbled across it on an occasional log in? wink

My download is up to 245MB, so well beyond the 200 or so MB it kept bumming out on before. Let's see if I have to cock around with file extensions when it's done!

I downloaded early this morning (CET). No change.
Then very early afternoon and it was fixed.
So in those 6 hours it was corrected.

It's not working for me now (WAV) won't download, just keeps getting stuck on the "getting information" part. Stuck on 0%.
Anyone else, or is it just me?
Thanks.

Bart doesn't hate Prince, it's actually the opposite, pushing to the point of obsession. He digs the old stuff, but when Prince doesn't fit into the mold Bart has created, then P is a piece o' crap.

For the most part, that has been the situation ever since Bart has been online. He's VERY knowledgeable about all things Prince, but is so left-brained, that it makes him nuts when someone who is totally right-brained does the crazy things they do.

The obsession part kicks in when it's made you a pissy, controlling person who can't move on. Prince IS NOT going to change into a Bart-bot, so why keep aggravating yourself over how someone else conducts their life & profession?

Once again: fams obsessing over someone who dares to point out simple truths.

Keep pretending you're the sane person, honey. I mean, it's not like you're making shit up about someone you don't know anything about right? Yeah, you're above that.

How many frikking times do I have to say it: THERE IS NO SECURITY. If you've got a download link, that link will work until they remove the file, simple as that. All I did was open up Free Download Manager, looked up the link in the History, and told FDM to re-download it. Et voila. Took me all of ten seconds, no need to log into that hideously crap site.

Got it! Tried about 12:15pm CST and got a bad server info message. Immediately retried it and left it while I went back to work. Extracted it all just now and it all seems good. The zip file is 465.3 MB.

So because you've posted the same stuff for years, that means I obsess over you? I know who you present yourself to be online and that's all I'm talking about, 'honey'.

My point is that you try to apply analytical logic to an artist's behavior and that usually doesn't work too well.

What have I made up? I asked two questions, stated no facts. Made nothing up as far as I can tell.

Go on, show me one post where I said I hated Prince.

No, I apply PRINCE'S OWN STATEMENTS to himself.
I also give my professional opinion when he releases yet another crap website.
And I point out that he hasn't made a good or relevant album in more than a decade, and I prove that by pointing out Prince's actions when it comes to those albums. (And I get proven rigth time and time again.)

READ what i wrote. Oh wait, I forget, you're too busy making stuff up about me to actually READ WHAT I WROTE.

In shorter words: YOU may need to log in to that horrible piece of crap and navigate to the proper section to check whether a download is fixed, I simply need to tell my DL manager to re-check a link. Now read what you initially wrote, and then compare to what I have to do. And the fact that there is no security is very important, because it allows me to DL that zip without logging into the site.

maybe it's true that some of his latest work is not really good (like planet earth and musicology), but you have to say that 3121 and now the 2 new cd's are in fact very good. and live he's still the bomb (proven by "indigo nights" and "it ain't over" and watched him live in london). he releases so much stuff that it's almost impossible to hit the jackpot every time. i'm a long time fan, one of the first members of the NPGMC back in 2001 and I still think it's worthwile. we are just impatiented sometimes that everytime he releases something new that doesn't work from the very first second we think we have the right to criticize everything he does. the NPGMC art first wasn't a big deal either, but look what it turned out to be, a treasury of new unreleased material. we will get the same with this new site. just wait and see.

en bart, belg of nederlander ?

This is a very basic necessity here: security.
Why wasn't this addressed ages ago?
This is not a glitch.
This is not overhyping but a real issue.

Most users aren't apt enough, but those that are don't even see a challenge here.
Scott: are you reading here?
Can you explain why this stuff is as it is?
Without security?

Please post directly, here.
