Technically, Musicology and Planet Earth didn't leak before it was actually released in some format/way of princes choosing.

you're comparing the development costs and value of a game to adobe creative suite that people rely on to do their job. Jobs where they generate orders of magnitude more revenue than creative suite costs and couldn't do without it?

alandail said:

Oh, I know. I am a professional graphic designer, and I for sure couldn't do my job without it. I still think CS is overpriced... part of that I'm sure is to offset any loss of revenue from piracy.

Which was my point all along: someone mentioned not ever paying for software - something I don't condone but I can see why people do it.

Speaking on the internet format, anything can be hacked or given access to if you know the right people. If one can get your credit card number or social security number, surely Prince has no magical internet shield from someone getting to his music...not bogus.

i myself am going to wait for the official release.i respect prince and his music.

leak or not,
I have already heard the majority of the songs on these three cds
I will still buy from the site and from target.

sidnic said:

especially since a big outfit like Target has access to the cd's... i'm sure it will leak the week before.

that's why it would be a smart idea to open the club up the week before with access to the new album.

I hope not. When $ leaked, all hell broke loose.

Vendetta1 said:

yeah, well part of the joy of being a Prince fan used to be that he put out good music and we actually liked him as a person (or at least knew almost nothing about him - which is probably better )

Yep! You can bet "$" on it!

I wish I could have heard this one....in 3 weeks I suppose...

squirrelgrease said:

I just have to say that I look forward to your posts. HILARIOUS!

And not only are your posts hilarious, but some are simply insightful. It seems as though whoever you are, you have a healthy perspective about all things Prince.

Thanks!

Everything leaks and this will 2

A big box retailer has the CD - the CD will leak the week of St. Patrick's Day


and yes I agree with all of U if he opens the site early - he can combat some of the leak with paid downloads
and
4 the record "$" never leaked.

I'm a huge believer in tryin before you buy it. I, too, contribute my share of buying also..


i just don't buy shit. and i'm pretty sure even if it's shit.. most Prince fans are collectors.. and enjoy owning the entire thing.


so relax.. prince will be just fine.

i hope so . i'll d/l it with a quickness and still buy it even if i don't like it . haven't bought a cd in a minute

i gave the big heads up on 3121 leakin..



I'LL RING THE ALARM ON THIS ONE TOO IF TIME ALLOWS ME

floralelephants said:

I always buy the album regardless if I download it early or not...
I also always say that this time Im not going to download before I get the cd but once I find the link Its like ok Ill just listen to one song... then later that day I know the whole CD already... But like I said, I always buy the CD regardless...

Me too.

Just another cheap, ungrateful loser who can't afford to pay $12 for THREE CDs. Pathetic and typical, especially with someone like you! Has anyone actually checked out this loser's myspace page?!

Honestly it will be tough, im doubting you will see a leak mainly because this is going from P to the Vendor, and its a "exclusive". Knowing him he isnt "giving out" copies to the press, and without a label, you dont have to worry about people working for the label getting their hands on it, which is the case with every album. Though GNR was exclusive to Best Buy, that "leak" was because Axl was holding on to this album for 20 years almost and there was so much underground on it.

Gonna buy it regardless

To be fair, when that post was made back in January, we had no idea that the set would cost $12. If he still says he'll steal it, no matter what, then fair enough though!

I've bought all of the official releases so far...why stop now..
