Could someone state what you actually get for joining?

As usual the club is sketchy and illusive - so could someone just state plainly what exactly the membership price gets you?

Thanks.

Since there are members online now, could someone please answer this? smile

$25 ain't much - but the principal of the matter is I'm not paying money for something unless I know what it is.

Ok they have said at least 3 videos from the las vegas show and access to member only areas. . . access to premium tix for concerts etc. I think. For $25 it really is SO worth it.

Any mention of actual CDs or just downloads during the year?

Forget the tickets - that's only *if* he's touring.

So you get to watch three streaming movie files, which will be on the DVD anyway - so it's a preview of the DVD for $25? confuse

The only stuff that´s interesting to me is preferred seating (although it´s unlikely he´ll tour soon), downloads and members only dvds and cds - hopefully available very soon, since I´m not into the rest of the "mickey mouse music club".

Just my opinion.

I hate downloading music & videos from the net so there doesn't seem to be much incentive for me to join.
Ohs wells.

It doesn't say anything anywhere about "members only dvds and cds"...they're very careful to not promise anything this year for your membership EXCEPT for the things that are there now (the streaming - not downloadable - videos, access to retail and preferred seating IF a tour happens). They don't even IMPLY that members will "get" anything for the membership other than the use of the site and the opportunity to spend more money on concerts. To quote:

"Each room of the house offers an ever-changing array of xperiences, including REFLECTION, KNOWLEDGE, and MUSICOLOGY. Come xperience rooms 2 interact with other members, view CYBERCLIPS with ur friends, and engage transmissions from the next stage of the New Power Generation. All members will also get access 2 advanced presale opportunities 4 the BEST SEATS at Prince's live events in the future. The new RETAIL room will have all the NPG Retail u can only get from within the walls of the NPG Music Club. And r construction crews will not be taking a break, so new rooms and renovations will continue all year."

I actully notice now that they don't even say "concerts"...it's "live events"...suppose the "next stage of the New Power Generation" might be tent revivals?
Basically, they've been very careful to avoid the problems of the past of stating that something would happen that didn't. If you don't promise anything, you don't need to worry about not following through. Smart move, I think. For $25, I joined again...we'll see what it becomes!
