What a strange thing to do. I think the best thing to do is to ignore you, since you don`t mean what you are saying anyway.



you obviously have many illegal recordings... and therefore can't be trusted


Are you from this planet?.

These replies of mine have nothing to do with your debate on whether bootlegs sucks or not. They are about you getting people wired up, telling them that they are not true fans and than afterwards saying.."I was just playing". That I find just a little bit strange.

Now, tell me, do you mean the things you say, or are they just to wound me/people up?.

Why not? I think if someone wants to hear Prince's music so bad, that they spend the money for over priced CDs and take the time to search and download unreleased music, they are more of a fan then people who just stick to the official stuff.



no... a true fan is someone who respects an artist's wishes



Why don't you listen to or read the better business bureau's
report on the NPG and see how much respect he has for his fans. How about the way he cheated his fans in New York and California out of the best live act on the 1999 tour, because the time was kicking his ass. How about the way he screwed people who subscibed to his short lived Magazine. How about the whole Crystal ball thing. How about the PRICE for that the truth single. How about taking a $100.00 of people's money and giving them nothing but a few half hearted CDs.

Respect???

A few questions MisterBliss:

Firstly, you claim you "care about prince's rights...". What about P's right to own his own masters from the Warner Bros. years? Do you own any of these Warners albums. Unlike bootlegs, they're legally available, but don't think that by legally buying and owning them you're supporting "prince's rights". Though P does gets money from these albums, he still thinks he's being ripped off. Did you buy any of these albums since the "Slave" dispute? Do you think new fans should avoid these albums because it's not fair to Prince?

Also, do you own a (legitimate) copy of the Black album? Legal and rightous it may be, but you said "a true fan is someone who respects the artist's wishes." Prince sent a message in the Alphabet St. video, specifically "don't buy the black album." Did you buy it? Wasn't it a blast.

As for bootlegs, there's no other way to get hold of this material. Same with the Warners albums. Most people would happily pay good money for unreleased stuff (see "Crystal Ball") and we'd all be thrilled if Prince got the rights to his masters back and remastered all the Warner's albums. Cuz the quality does vary. But true fans have a thirst for previously unheard stuff. And so much of it is so damn good to our ears.

Anyway, how do you know the "quality sucks" if you've never tried bootlegs?

this is funny.

but if we were actually being serious...

if Prince sold something thru proper channels & THEN i bootlegged THAT product...it isnt good.

however Prince knows there is a DEMAND for this stuff 2 be released,in perfect sound thru proper channels...
i dont know why he doesnt follow Phish & Pearl Jam.
that way everyone wins.
i download Prince concerts & outtakes.
i dont buy them (well i have when i was an amateur collector.)

Respect???

half hearted??

i suppose it was a half hearted act 2 let those people whose "$100 he took",in2 soundchecks & aftershows for FREE!
thats right!
all those bonuses.
..preferred seating at concerts also.
damn u get a tour in america.
B greatful!
& if u dont like the price of this Truth single,dont by the muthafucka.

it is pretty simple when u think about it,

I agree that the Bootlegers are wrong, but I am not wrong for buying them ( my opinion ). He doesnt lose any money from my purchase's, he just doesnt make more ( And we all no he's short of cash ). And I understand that the recordings are stolen and Blaa-Blaa, but thier just so Damn good! I understand most of your postings but some things just seem like your trying to piss people off. The only way I will stop buying them is if they stop making them. I guess Im not a fan.

Oh yeah,
Im listening to Fine Line Cafe as I write this.
