This is the BEST news. Prince actually might have listened to us. Housequake.com & Prince.org make a great team. Let's stop the bickering and team-up.

Prince's Lawyers were going to sue Housequake.com over the use of his likeness(pictures) and the discussion and trading of bootlegs. They also accused Housequake of creating a market to sell bootlegs.

Housequake posted this:

Good News!

Housequake & the Prince/NPGMC Lawfirm DWT, has found an agreement with each other, and things will be as it ever was on Housequake.com very soon. Ofcourse without the bootleg Trading activities and without any illegal photo's posted from Prince's latest Tour. So expect everything to be as normal. And maybe something real cool will happen here in the furture. So hold on to your wigs!

But most of all our deepest respect to all of you here defending/protecting us wherever & whenever they could. And that is a really really cool & pleasant thing, to find out you are not alone. [Cool]

The Housequake team

If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.
