Reflection is a great song, I saw this clip on the Tavis Smiley show a month ago. I wish he would put up stuff that hasnt already been released in one form or another. I was really looking forward to the next dload too

1. It coulda been taped for free from PBS.
2. It was made available for free on the PBS website (probably still is). But hey, if there's a demand for it, who am I to pooh-pooh it?  | |

somebody asked for it - said they'd pay .99 for it, so they put it up and charged. When someone first said it was up there, I checked the still closed video room. | |

anyone have a link to the free copy at PBS? Is PBS quicktime? What about the copy NPGMC is selling? | |

I feel kinda ick about NPGMC selling a clip for profit that came from a PBS program. Maybe I shouldn't feel ick about it, maybe it happens all the time. Maybe if the proceeds went toward supporting public broadcasting, I dunno. I'd certainly buy a download - and I already have a couple of copies on different formats. Still, the way Prince likes to go on about media manipulation and "The Truth", such a gesture would be awfully impressive.
Ah well.  | |

Someone go on the club and tell him we'll pay $.99 per track for a video of Glam Slam Ulysses. 
Sorry NPGMC, I got mine for free directly from the source. GREAT performance though, fucking stunning, mind-blowing and ass-kicking. No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Ugh, it was requested by NuPwrSoul on the 18th and 3 days later the club does his bidding? Why are they always listening to the yahoos? No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Then he (NuPwrSoul, that is...OH, and he can of course be found at www.npgmc.com) goes on to say:
I think there was even a download available briefly as a test that some people were able to access.
I know NPGMC was in the early stages of testing the download service, but will it be possible for that to be included as a download in the Musicology store? So they really do give special perks to the preferred few. Skeezy. No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

I think we both know the answer to that question. They deleted my ass when I posted the freakin' Musicology cover from Amazon.com. | |

I guess for some reason even I am surprised that Sammela & Co. have sunk so low that they would actually not allow a link to a free download of a PUBLIC BROADCASTING to be left up there. They're in different formats anyway, so what's the big deal? Are you really gonna lose any kind of substantial amount of money? No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain.

I don't know what the fuss is, its only $0.77, or about 41p in proper money. Some sundries that I brought today:
a newspaper for 30p a can of coke for 50p a packet of crisps(chips) for 35p a Prince video for about 41p. RIP | |

Well, I don't know how much of a fuss is really being made, but the only objection I have is that Public Broadcasting is supposed to be just that...and I think that the NPGMC should donate whatever money it gets to PBS, if not the Tavis Smiley show directly.
Hey, maybe they're doing that, I dunno. Either way, it's cool that orgers don't have to pay and NPGMC'ers do. No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Sho is...some people need to be told more than once. No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

I just got one question.. why isnt "new stuff" in npgmc on the headlines of the org? I mean, isnt that considered news? This site is dedicated to him for his contributions in music and a new song doesnt make the front page... | |

High ya all,
Nice Live video, however i'm concerned at the quality of the video, i had some stutters towards the end, and the downlaod said it was gonna be large but it aint. A suggestion, when we get video downloads can they be in better quality even when you play them full screen on your monitor. thanks in advance Later on in the same thread, NPGMC member "coolasyoulike" posted: I agree the aspect ratio does look odd when compared to the version that was available from the PBS Website.
Which Butcher is responsible for the encoding? I think the quality of the Video Clip should be improved. Okay it's not as bad as "Baby Knows" from Year 1, but we have come to expect higher standards with last years Cyber Clips. No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.
