wow...

sure it's pricey but, c'mon...its still only $2100. asking for production credits and mentor sessions and interview rights...geez, for a measley $2100. lol i'm honestly not seeing the craziness in all of this. first of all, its something that has a connection to sotheby's and they don't deal in anything but high end. second of all, if you can't afford it don't worry about buying it. what's the problem?

do y'all throw a temper tantrum every time you see something you can't afford?


I'm not mad at our boy, I can't afford it so I won't get it, simple as that.
Peace ... & Stay Funky ...

GO UNDER FAQ it says new material will be given out over the time. Prob unreleased work and vids and what not. This is just something for those fans with a bigger bank account, so what? Besides the DVD for the 21 Nights will come out eventually for all the other fans so chill



Where did you hear this from?

Currently, every Prince album before/during the name change is available on iTunes. NO albums that were released as prince are (or ever were, AFAIK) available.

Musicology and 3121 were available, but aren't on there now. Planet Earth is currently available, as is the F.U.N.K. single.

I think the iPod Touch is the nicest and best way to offer music on video on a portable device. Plus, there might be software that might disable (or at least deter) piracy.


This begs another question, which might have already been answered but I haven't noticed it: how much storage capacity is in this iPod?


That hasn't been answered but since it looks like an iPod Touch, it can't be any bigger than 32 GB. Is it a 32 GB, I seriously doubt it!
I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

hmmmmm....in my opinion, this is a very nice item for a collector

prince knows we collect and he also knows some of us have done pretty well for ourselves financially

and this can only increase in value.....prob up to $4,000 in mint condition

I've sent an email to the Opus people asking that very question...

Granted, I don't think the $2100 thing is a good value, but I'm not going to bitch about it, let the man sell what he wants, geez. Someone probably approached him and/or Randee and sold him on this grand idea. I actually like it that he's into putting out a special collectible package, just wish it was cooler stuff.

If I recall correctly, didn't the guitars he used to sell cost this much, if not more? I'd go for the guitar myself if I had $$ like that to throw at my collection. So I say, do some special packages, but make them more worthwhile!

Prince...I know I've been pretty hard on you lately but it's not like you haven't deserved it but I'll tell you what...if you send me that diamond symbol pendant, the real one, don't even think about sending a fake because I'd know mad ...I'll publicly apologize to you, cop to all the bootlegs I may or may not have, quit the Org, once and for all and never mention your name again. So how 'bout it, Baby? deal

The reason I have a little cash in the bank and I don't have much debt is because I think before I buy or charge. Would I like this item? Yes! Do I need this item? No! Am I buying it? No! We all need to chill. Save your money for the tour. I am sure one is coming since he started his web site with the plan to sell us tickets. We can live without a book most of us have, and an ipod. Mine is already filled with his music anyway, and has room for lots more. I am more amused by this than upset. Let's worry about something else.

I'm looking forward to you deleting your account here.

I don't understand people getting so worked up over the price of this thing. It's a lot of money, but THAT'S THE POINT! Look at the other products for sale at the Opus site. Clearly, they trade in pricey, high end collector's items. It's not like everything Prince does is so costly, but if he can make money, why shouldn't he? Have a little perspective, folks.

That said, I think everyone who has joined LotusFlow3r.com has a right to be annoyed about the exclusivity of the 21 Nights video. This is exactly the sort of thing that should be added to the site if he wants folks to sign up again next year.



1. Why are you looking forward to...? That just stupid. I have lots of friends on here.?!!? Im looking forward to U reading the rest of this thread and saying the same to every other person who feels the same. This is a NUTSO thing for Prince to do. He truly is insane.
2. Yes I paid 77$, So YOU say I have a right to be annoyed yeah? Thanks!
Thank you very much!

Go read a few newspapers about the global economic climate and hardships people are facing. Listen to the lyrics of Planet Earth plus tons of others, then read about the Opus edition again. Yes lotusflow$r members have a right to feel pissed. Internet "Haters" indeed.

A seperate Prince IPOD is a good idea though, particularly if loaded with exclusive content.

New concert documentaries etc would also be appreciated on the Lotusflower website. Not necessarily the one from this package, but something would please many I feel.

lol!!
He told me about the one off diamond encrusted one... which I thought sounded completely ludicrous, so I disregarded the claim.
He was interested in managing a project I had been working on, & I thought he might have been trying 2 impress me with fake inside info. Evidently he wasn't, I need 2 give that guy a call!!

.....as for the "exclusive" content?
Im sure some of the more "profesional" bootlegers will invest in a copy,press it,release it,and make a handsome profit from the "poorer" real fans.
Prince has just handed the bootlegers some nice "official" candy.
