Rationale?

I can't comprehend why Prince will not let his vast great history of music stream all the time on AOL radio, which I think should produce fans who can see what albums these various gems are from and go buy from his past catalog.

Yes, Prince feels obliged to stream his new less great material (sorry, not Chelsey Rodgers included) online a couple sites anyway.

As I typed this, I came up with the answer, Warner Bros. Is this is way of putting the screws to WB. Or is he a control freak who will do what he likes when he wants , even if it sometimes seems paradoxical to my mind?

Let me know what you think please. I suppose bottom line, I want the All-Prince radio station back online with AOL. It was marvelous, even if I had already bought 96% of the music they played.

AOL is not the only place where Prince is played...

What about New Power Radio, and Emancipation Radio??

Just look a little harder







If you will, so will I

I did register with newpowerradio, and downloaded a newer version of windows media player, but still nothing when I hit play. Perhaps because I am using windows 98 and older laptop. Emancipation radio did not work as well.

I have great luck with AOL radio and Wolfgang's Vault, but Prince is sadly no longer prominent on AOL and there are none of his live concerts to stream on Wolfgang, so I am going to play one of his CDs now.

Thanks for pointing me in the direction of help, but feeling it is quite helpless until I upgrade.
