N.E.W.S format

What format u think this will be in? Cd or mp3? Personally I like cd's.. but I know how prince/npg are with sending cd's.. So I also wouldnt mind this in mp3's.. preferably in 320kbps...

I think the real question is: Will it be free for members, or will it be in retail? Considering the club was only $25 this year, my bets are on retail.

when you look in the vault and
if you compare xpectation with n.e.w.s. you will see,
that xpectation has the format mp3 and n.e.w.s. has
the format cd.
so I think it will be on retail.

what makes you people think it would be free? when you joined the club for 25 bucks it said nothing about free music.. get over it..

if its free.. well then thats a bonus.. what a nice surprise to have it mailed to members...

but i highly doubt it..

Additional questions:
Will it be only be available thru NPGMC or will it also sell in retail stores?
If it is sold in retail stores will it be available thru NPGMC in advance for club members?
Release date?

Can a non member buy thru NPGMC03 Retail?

I bet the new release will be available thru the NPGMC and you'll have to join in order to purchase.

Prince did not release "Xpectation" to the public and I don't see Prince releasing "N.E.W.S."- a four 14 min track CD.

So all you non and previous years members who arn't current should join now- otherwise you will be paying $25 plus the cost of "N.E.W.S." all in one lump sum.

Thanks for the info Big.

Why can't they just tell members this, without all the rumours?

In my opinion, I think since its only 4 tracks and probably only instumental ablum, me thinks that Prince is planning to throw it in with the dvd as a bonus. Which means of coarse we need to by the dvd.
