it's not rocket science, call itunes and provide exlusive content (current live shows) and what you can still salvage and remaster. Provide more on website or simply buy this one and give it a facelift, make us pay 3.99 per month to come here.Out bootleg the bootleggers by providing a more pure product, cut out the middleman.

get real, talk with my fans, and create a public blog open for comments
keep my mouth shut about things that might cause a large amount of hurt or confusion
find out who my real friends are and consider them infinitely valuable

IF I were trying to do what Prince and Universal are doing, I would be more personal about it,make more online appeals by communitcating first with the fans to let them know what and how I'm trying to do on a non-threatening level through my website and other domains appeals, because I think that there's so much misunderstanding with the people (us) that really spend the money, and have contributed to where he is today.I think the legalitites and non-communication will hurt him in the long run the most. But know what he's trying to do and, think he's got the right to do SOME of it!

I would probably give the studio albums a miss.

I would do a few gigs every year and release the live performances, because it seem's that he is most appreciated for them

I mean imagine releasing one of the o2 after shows. Would casual fans buy? I think maybe they would.

Oh, and i would instruct my lawer's to lay the f__k off the fan/fam sites.

cool

him being a JW plays a major role in this(which if i were in his shoes.. i surely wouldnt be one).. he doesnt want to be that 'old' person (which has made his career) .. he wants to erase his past image .. Prince is no different than other stars.. if he didnt want to be seen.. why become famous? that's apart of being a celebrity ...i love how they dont want you in their life, no photos, cant have videos, etc.. but when they put projects out, new movies, albums, whatever etc.. then they want you to put up your money and come support them .... if i were in his shoes, i wouldnt go about things the way he's doing it... you have to try and beat this game on the bootleggers level.. like he did with that golden ticket in the album thing... you had to buy an album to get a ticket.. well.. why doesnt he offer DVD's with tickets in them to more free concerts or more free items? that would surely get the public to buy more of his stuff... or add memorabilia surprises in the CD/DVD's .... stars gotta think of strategies now to out beat bootleggers.. him suing everybody surely wont do it..

I'd be out spending my millions on something better than WS internet witch hunt!!

Like my own website, making it the #1 Prince site in all the land by investing a little something called EFFORT in to it!

Purely on the basis of adding my own personality instead of his - the situation would never have arisen in the first place.

That was my immediate thought, so as per your request I gave it full consideration, and the answer remains the same - it simply wouldn't have come to this.
Lemmy, Bowie, Prince, Leonard. RIP.
