Cool, but I wonder for how long they will be up there unless Prince and Mtv have had a dialogue which is very likely.

You don't have to live in the States to see the videos wink

those videos have been up on MTV's web site forever and a day. i'm surprised prince's people haven't had them yanked yet.

maybe MTV's lawyers can beat up prince's lawyers? lol

well, that still doesn't discount the fact that mtv has had a ton of prince videos available to view for a long time. i'm glad they revamped it and let everyone know about it. shrug

Where abouts are you muse? I'm in the Uk and this trick isn't working this time. It worked recently for the One U Wanna C video but MTV don't seem to be falling for it. I've changed the time, re-booted, even delted cookies. Nothing. sad

Tried firefox and IE.

I think MTV's case is different since they have licenses to broadcast promo videos. It's a bit different than Joe the Plumber uploading "Raspberry Beret" to YouTube.

I doubt MTV paid a dime since most ppl would beg to have their videos shown anyway. Its possible prince signed over the right to them when they were originally played. It might have been a fine print which didnt mean much back then

Prince is a douche-bag anyways though for stifling what really ends up being phenomenal promotional and advertising material for him (on youtube).
I remember reading loads and loads of comments about his RRHOF performance of While My Guitar Gently Weeps and folks saying "Damn! I didn't know Prince could play like that!".

I guess his 21 Nights coffee table photo-book is supposed to gain him more street cred--- who knows. lol


douche-bag.
