Prince is one of the few musicians who (whom?) I think could really revolutionize the music industry.
He's got the bucks and the chops to create a startup that would provide production seed money to bands, and a iTunes-style music webservice that would ensure the band gets a good cut of profits while Prince gets a good — and not grotesque — profit on his investments. RIAA needs to be wholly eliminated from the picture. Between the various semi-intelligent "if you liked X you'll like Y" recommendation systems, reasonably-priced recording and production services, and web delivery, I see no reason why a decent band should not make a good living off their work. Unlike the current model, where RIAA fat-cats make a good living off their work, while the band sinks further into debt. posted by five fresh fish at 3:35 PM PST on February 9 stick this on the front page. Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
