Hi all! I am new here,but have been a fan of Prince since I was 9-10. I hadn't actually bought any of his stuff after probably ATWIAD,but have always loved him! I recently was listening to my Purple Rain Cd,and started looking into what he had been up to lately music wise,and started to download practically all of albums off of iTunes. I am now in search of The Gold Experience,and Rave UN2 The Joy Fantastic,but unfortunately iTunes does not have these. I know I could just order the cd's,but I would really like to just buy the downloads,so I could put them on my iPod. Does anyone know of any legit places besides iTunes that I could buy these 2 albums from? TIA

u can try torrent sites for free music.

Unfortunately, I am not sre if there is a legit place to download. Everytime I tried 2 download Chocolate Invasion from the 3121 club, access was denied. So maybe someone will help out but I'm not sure that it is legit!

AOL might be the place to go

Good on you for wanting to buy it.
I recent;y succumbed to downloading free because I was running out of places to purchase. The NPG music club releases pretty much impossible to find, which is a shame, because I loved some of this stuff.

In my defense, i do plan to replace everything I have downloaded when I can find it

Anyway, i would also reccomend buying the actual albums where you can anyway. What you buy on itunes etc are of lesser quality (being MP3's) and often not any cheaper than buying at the 'wreka stow'.

Thanks for the link,unfortunately even AOL won't let me buy it. I click on the BUY button,but nothing happens. I did find a site called MP3 City,and I can get both albums from there. I was a little surprised though that they only want $2.99 for an entire album. I haven't gotten them yet,do you think I should be leary?

i would have thought that a site like that wouldn't be able to get away with selling MP3's unless they had distribution rights.

It might just seem cheap because itunes is a bit overpriced.

I say download away!!!

Let'z face the biggest unanswered question folx...."Where are the Albumz?" And the Turntables?

I Demand to know....Where are the Turntables? I demand to know.....Where are the Turntables?

Albums I can still find....but I can't find the Turntables....

If you know CD's exist, why then avoid buying CD's and go for crappy sounding MP3's?
When you have CD's you can always rip MP3s, FLACs, OGGs, etc.

What's wrong with second hand CDs? SecondSpin.com, eBay, Amazon Marketplace etc.

The RIAA is increasing the #'s of lawsuits twoards downloaders. They usually let you settle for $5000. They catch people thru torrents because they can get your ip address.

Let's level the playing field, start stealing cars, ipod, food.

There was no stores around me that carried the CD's that I wanted,and I am one of those people that when I want something I want it THEN and so if there is anyway for me to get it right away without having to wait for someone to ship it to me,I will go that route.

Turtable's can be found on Ebay,my Mom got one off of there for my Uncle.

good to know. My need to support the music industry is what had kept me from downloading torrents in the past, now I have an additional reason

.... nobody is up on mIRC huh?
