Is Prince finally geting Master Tapes to the FOR YOU Album?

Great Article in the New York Times , about how artists like Springsteen, Dylan, the Eagles etc are getting the rights to their master tapes from their respective record companies, for songs 35 years old starting in 1978. Does this mean Prince can finally get the master tapes for For You, recording in 1978 and then all the other WB albums in future years.

Somebody please explain, is this the end of the Master Tapes Emancipation debate or I am reading it wrong.
