ZombieKitten said: Giovanni777 said: Methinks U all may not be seeing the irony in this (camera).
Proof positive of Prince's sense of humour. This looks like it would be a capable bootlegging device. so if you have THIS camera you can take photos/video of him without being bullied? Actually, the only reason I can see 4 this camera, is as an "authorized" method of recording his shows...  "He's a musician's musician..." |

ALSO... Although I really like the 3 CDs at once, I'm concerned about "artwork and lyrics available online"...
What will Target sell, then? 3 CDs in blank covers? ? "He's a musician's musician..." |

What will Target sell, then? 3 CDs in blank covers? ? In slip cases with covers, but no booklets. I'm hot and I don't care who knows it...I got a job to do.  |

I don't, but they will have to retail with covers or a cover. Due to the cost, he won't be providing a booklet. I'm hot and I don't care who knows it...I got a job to do. |

Oh for pete's sake... It's an intelligent guess based on the fact that the announcement hints that we may have to download full artwork and lyrics from the Lotus Flower website. Prince is not going to release blank looking CD-Rs with Sharpie marker pen titles but neither is he going to manufacture full glossy CD booklets. So somehere in between would be logical no? Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. |

What will Target sell, then? 3 CDs in blank covers? ? If the artwork and lyrics may be available online for purchase, then it sounds like P will have these albums available for download as well, as it wouldn't make sense to have it there, if he wasn't planning on selling the albums online. I gather if you purchase the cd package at Target I'm sure the all artwork/lyrics/liner notes should be included, but like I said, we'll have to wait and see. [Edited 3/3/09 7:32am] | |

Yeah but Target attracts more consumers, because they advertise on a larger scale, therefore reaching more consumers, | |

With this news, now I can be even more excited!  I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

I ask cause I had actually agreed with Sdldawn, for once, with Best Buy. With this news, now I can be even more excited! Of course they do. Look at all their commercials. Especially back in 2005/2006/2007 when they made sure they became a major household name in the Northeast, with all the advertising dollars they spent on air time, to make sure they got the consumers attention. I remember you would see at least 10 commercials a day about Target, especially during the holidays when they had their trademark symbol in different colors. Who doesn't know who Target is in the U.S? [Edited 3/3/09 7:54am] | |

[Edited 3/3/09 7:51am] That's a great point you make. Hell, sometimes I sing along to their commercials. Yeah, Prince made the right choice. I hope that TV ad is all over the stations across America all the time! Force people to know that there's a new Prince CD in town! 
It just dawned on me, when Target has an ad campaign, there are always ads in the subway stations across the city here in NY promoting the artist like Christina Aguliara and John Legend from last year. I hope I get to see Prince's mug at my subway station real soon! Maybe the ad will be on the trains too! The possibilties are endless!!!! I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Wendy: He’s a girl, for sure, but he’s not gay. He looked at me like a gay woman would look at another woman. Lisa: Totally. He’s like a fancy lesbian. | |

Rogue588 said: 2elijah said: Yeah but Target attracts more consumers, because they advertise on a larger scale, therefore reaching more consumers, Actually, Wal*Mart would've been the correct answer. Well, actually, there is no right or wrong answer, because it all depends on location, and which store, Target/Best Buy/Walmart, would work for you. In my opinion, and I based thist on the NYC area only, which I should have stated in the previous post, Target attracts more customers in the NYC area, because they advertise more, and they have more locations which are easier for NYC residents to get to. There are plenty of Best Buys as well, and they have weekly circulars, but Target has more of a variety of merchandise other than audio/music, etc. Walmart does also, but the problem with Walmart is that you can't find any within the 5 boroughs of NYC. Now Walmart has plenty of stores out in New Jersey, Long Island, NY areas, but for New Yorkers, a shopper would have to travel to Nassau County to find one. I heard there is a Walmart, near the United Nations, but not too sure about that. I only shopped at Walmart when my family had moved to Florida for a while, because there weren't any within NYC. I would have loved if there were, but unfortunately we have to travel far to find one. [Edited 3/3/09 9:02am] | |

Target attracts more customers in the NYC area, because they advertise more, and they have more locations which are easier for NYC residents, There are plenty of Best Buys as well, , and they have weekly circulars, but Target has more of a variety of merchandise other than audio/music, etc. Walmart just started doing major advertising in the NYC around 2006, in the northeast area (mainly NYC) at that time, maybe a year earlier, and they have stores out in New Jersey, Long Island, NY areas, but the problem is that in the 5 boroughs that make up NYC, a shopper would have to travel to Nassau County to find one. I heard their is one near the United Nations, but not too sure. I only shopped at Walmart when my family had moved to Florida for a while, because there werent' any within NYC. I would have loved if there were, but I would have to go out near the Green Acres Mall, in Valley Stream, NY to shop at that one, and to be honest with you, that is not exactly a decent, store if you know what I mean. Some of the merchandise there is not up to par, like other Walmarts I've shopped at in Florida and near the Roosevelt Field Mall in near Westbury, NY. There is also a Wal Mart in White Plains, not too far from The Bronx. What you said is very true, just that as a NYer, it won't be as easy to get to Wal Mart like it will be with Target.

I do remember someone mentioning there was a Walmart in the Bronx on another post, but we like I said, there's only a few. I believe some residents, a while back, didn't want a Walmart in some boroughs, back in the 90s, but I bet they wish we had more now. Anyway, I think Target is a pretty good choice because of the many locations, and the fact that not everybody shops online. [Edited 3/3/09 9:07am] | |

If there were, I would have said so and given y'all subway, bus and highway info on how to get there. People across the city complained about it killing off the Mama and Pop stores and taking over the neighborhoods at large, along with people arguing about there not being any labor unions attached with Wal Mart (This is a union-run town here in NYC) so that was another block for W-M. Personally, I want Wal Mart in NYC. I've always enjoyed shopping there when I could.I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |
