we are getting there..

Maybe time will tell ....really looking at Prince to move on from the days of a closed club and spread his music out to a larger number of people but at $77 not many people / young and old will fork out that cash ....its so sad ...if the website closes more doors than it opens

I really like this visual. alot.

LondonStyle said:

But the doors didn't even open for US yet and here you are worrying about the rest of the world. Fuck them if they don't want to join. I'm going to be there, many of us are going to be there and that's what matters the most. If the rest of the world wants to be cheap, then thats on them not you or me. I can't speak for anyone else here but hopefully, I'm going to have a good time on the site.

LondonStyle said:

After your MJ tickets get refunded, then you should have some extra dough.

So because I can't afford a Ferrari, I should go steal one instead, or expect them to price them like a Saturn, so it's in my price range?

Geezus people, it sounds like he's FINALLY giving us what we've begged for all these years and it's still not good enough for some of the whiners around here.

All I'm gonna say is this; Well Prince, it has been an incredible ride so far - but for me it seems to be over. I just can't spend $ 77 (!!!??) on a website right now... I wish everyone, including Prince, a very joyous continuing ride, though...

LondonStyle said:

Well, the people have always said if he provided official product, we'd pay for it, so now will be the time to honor that.

Nowadays, with people's unrealistic sense of entitlement, I'm sure there will be some bootlegging. But at least those of us who do want to compensate him for his work will do it without bitching.

Oh my I am so excited about to scream !!!

I'm not saying anything.

I've got it in "that" department, but I'm not in my 20's anymore so I'm out of the running. Like I was ever IN the running!!!

You know, I was there day one for all of the other websites, but I think I'm going to wait this one out and see what it's all about. $77 is not a fortune, but considering the times it IS a bit steep just for a website, especially considering Prince's history with websites.

I just read an article that cut and pasted a chat with Prince and a Paisley Park employee right before the beginning of the second NPGMC year where Paisley Park discussed songs that would finally see the light of day [Moonbeam Levels, Others Here With Us, Come Outside & Play, and Witness 4 the Prosecution]. None of them did, at least to my knowledge. Not really trying to whine here, just trying to communicate that sometimes Prince doesn't really deliver on what he promises and this has been especially true for website content.

You know, I hope that the website has amazing content and then I will be eating my words on toast. But instead of racing to the site on the first day, I think I would really like to hear some reports before I put another charge on my credit card...

Those of u not wanting to pay $77, will be begging us who do pay for the music/videos or whatever in a few years.

Graycap23 said:

Where does it say that the $77.00 is for vault material? All I saw was this:



Is there supposed to be a 4th world or something? Because access to Prince's vault material is priceless! $77.00 to play in a video game universe with Prince and his new flavor of the month is fucking laughable!

Copycat said:

U better believe he's gonna charge u 4 the t-shirt. At least $30.

Nothinbutjoy said:

what u running 4?

The new cover reminds me of 70's shlock covers like this:



You guys better hold onto your 77 dollars until you find out what the website is actually going to offer for a year. You never know, knowing Prince, he could let you in, but still charge you extra for downloads.

Go slow or the ripoff rain will flow.

oh this is too sexy!!!

the cover to MPLSoUND rules! i love covers like that.

i should be paying the 55 quid straight up but, of course, gonna browse a bit 1st.

barely 10 days to go!!!

daPrettyman said:

And when this site shuts down before a year has passed, y'all will be eating purple crow.

Seriously, it won't take a few years. It'll take me a few weeks to suss out whether or not the hype is to be believed. Like I said, we've been here before with Prince, and I'm not alone in feeling wary of his online ventures.
