I payed $25 to be able to navigate through a nice-looking building trying to find rare interesting bits. So I hardly ever go to the site.
I liked the idea of the chat and the forums, too bad they censor so heavy that I can't be bothered to post or read. This was actually the first ever forum on which I had my own messages deleted..
It was nice to download 'reflection', but one, to be honest quite avarage, song is really a lot less than I expected.
The videos I tried to watch, but due to extreme buffering they were impossible to view.
I ordered NEWS through the site, only to have it delivered to my house 2 weeks after it hit the stores... Nice privilage..
I will not order the DVD.
Hopefully something worthwhile will pop up later in the year. If not: then this was my last year of membership.

"C-Note" download was an attempt to right the wrongs of NPGMC last year. I believe it was 4 songs recorded during a soundcheck, which were OK, but nothing you need to hurt yourself trying to find.

I'm much happier that I can pick and choose what I want to buy this year instead of only being offered an expensive "bulk package" of stuff.

The $25 membership fee is nominal and discourages people from creating multiple accounts like on the org, creating chaos and screwing with others.

I passed on News. It was interesting to listen to, and I saved my streaming copies. But the album didn't amaze me enough to buy it.

I'll prob hold off on the DVD too until I hear some reviews of it, but it's nice that we have specific release dates this year.

The club was pretty active when it first opened, hosting celeb chats, listening parties, etc. Far more than what they have ever done before. But right now it's kind of mellowed out, and I don't visit it much.

Whatever Prince wants to do these days, at least he's lessened the commitment on fans behalf. The club's offerings are more ala-carte this year.

Also, there is quite a bit more correspondence and specific information.


That's a good point about the $25 fee. I didn't think about that. I could be done to discourage multiple accounts. It should also give a more accurate accounting of the site.

Well, I don't know anything about the multiple screen name thing - I've never understood that. What's the point in giving your opinion if you're afraid to say who you are?
No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Sex is not love. Love is not sex. Putting words in other people's mouths will only get you elected.
