you get an ipod worth £100 and a video of about 20 minutes of pro shot o2 shows that will be exclusive until the first person uploads it to the internets

you could get a new iphone and ipad and a takeaway each weekend for a year for the same money

I thought the video was 45 minutes, but either way, why people are still sweatin' this overpriced piece of nonsense is beyond me.

Yeah. The book is a fancy copy of "21 Nights" printed on human skin or something and the iPod will have preloaded copies of Indigo Nights and the above mentioned video.

If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

Apparently no one has bought an Opus, because I have not heard of the footage anywhere on the 'net.

they've been on sale as pre orders but they never shipped any. i think the idea was they were to presell them all first and then release them, but presumably sales were poor as you could get the normal book and cd from fopp for £5 and an ipod touch for £100, and prince is always changing his mind and cancelling stuff

Won't be long til they turn up at the next Paisley Park garage sale for $100 with a free box of 3121 perfume thrown in for good measure lol. confused

Better idea would of been to let fans buy online raffle tickets for say $5 each (the cheaper the more fans will buy) then raffle them off. I am sure he would of made loads that way.cool

Wonder how the company thats made them & promoted it feels about the lack of sales neutral
