The only thing missing when I log on the site, are the videos. Other than that everything else is there, so far.

Hey don't complain! I still haven't got my T Shirt! I have updated my info and still nothing... I have emailed support@lotusflow3r.com and no reply. NOTHING.

I am a big Prince fan and have always supported his direct to consumer(Fan) websites from the first one and it really does feel like a 'take your money and run' situation with Lotusflow3er.com. Its a classic case of over promise and under deliver. If I would have known what I know now I would have bought the album from Target and not bought from the site. I do feel ripped off and like a sucker. I am really truly unimpressed by this.


You still never got your T-shirt? omg Daaaaamn!
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.

If Prince can sue his fans then why can't his fans sue him? This site would be a perfect organizing tool for such a move (no wonder he wanted/wants to take it and others like it down!). I'd love to see his Machiavellian legal team take a righteous hit. Vipers!

What's wrong with you guy's, your not 6 years old, Prince is a musician not a website designer ... lol

I'm in the UK and I got the lastest CD, I had to pay more than you guy's in the US ....What your prince was $11.00 for 3 CD's / 2 CD's if you want to take the Bria Album off. Still good vaule for money.....

Why would you want to join a website for $77.00 ? What's wrong with you ?

To get video's of Prince....There's loads on the internet for free ... lol

And you can always buy his Video from Amazon Aladdin / Rave / etc...

Or if you want to know about Prince buy a book again loads on Amazon.com, Then you have magazines you can get back issues of Rolling Stone, NME etc...

T-Shirts you can get the any image Printed on to your T-shirt down the local market, whatever design you want!

Pictures you can sign up to Getty Images and buy them, very cheap and good poster quality.... biggrin
Da, Da, Da....Emancipation....Free..don't think I ain't..! London 21 Nights...Clap your hands...you know the rest..
James Brown & Michael Jackson RIP, your music still lives with us!

I can get to the homepage and enter my details but then the orb just sits there all omni-impotent. And then it caused Safari to stop responding. I had to force it to quit! I'm a Mac user ffs, I'm not used to having dodgy websites or software causing my system to slow up or crash!

Such an amateur operation the whole thing. Very disappointed by it all. A fool and his money are soon parted they say. Well I'm the fool alright. Not next time though.

Once again Prince has shown he doesn't give a fuck about that site - or the fans for all that matter.

All we have done is line his short pockets again for a project he's only interested in until the release date. It's obvious he simply can't be bothered.

If I had the money for a good lawyer I would sue his ass off for false advertising.

I foolishly paid the $77 ($144 Australian) for an "entire new galaxy" and what did we get - 3 CRAP albums thats should have been just one brilliant one, a poxy t-shirt that they CHARGE ME the shipping for and a whole bunch of videos most of us would already have. WOW!!!

I sure as shit aren't going to pay for anymore of your vanity projects little man.

Total wanker!!!!!

Now I have that off my chest I feel better hehehehe

I will say this for the site. No one can say they had ALL of the videos posted there. I have had the laserdiscs for Sacrafice of Voctor and Undertaker since they were released but they are still fairly rare classics that I bet most serious Prince collectors were searching for. I see peope complaining that they already had all the videos and - while I am sure they are some that did - I am sure that most did not.

I wish Prince would just have a free site and then charge for songs and videos you wanted to get. This way he gets his money and we can pick what we want. He could put the whole vault up and we could pick and choose songs. It will never happen but I can dream

I don't think any "serious Prince collector" was still searching for a crappy copy of S.o.V.

And can we please remember that downloading stuff from the site is only possible via tricks and fancy add-ons? There is no download button on LF, and when the site will be gone in a few months, people will have nothing. Well, some may have downloaded the clips and stil can watch them after that, but then still the crappy flv converts will be the lowest quality versions circulating. Damn, people have the promo clip for Uptown on 3, 5 or 12 different releases, every single one making everything on LF being a pity quality-wise. There is absolutely no excuse for anything related to LF. We all got lied in our faces, and ripped off big time, stop questioning that. (Not you in particular, Brofie, just took your post as a start. No pun.)

The only "real" thing i got for my membership was the unreleased track "The Morning After", everything else was a huge joke, I'm not even going to comment on all that bullshit we got. And next time he'll set up a site like this, i will LOVE to download the single unreleased track from torrent sites - multiple times! LOL!

Orb is back, with new vids and pics. I got my tee shirt a while back, and I must confess that it looks like something I picked up at the fair.. the quality is poor, but at least his music is not. LOL.

At least his is astute enough to know that there is always a few suckers who will believe it and sign up again...
