Who says he has jurisdiction?

Who says he can trace me?

Who says he is downloading while I am seeding?

Or downloading from any one of you?

That is what torrenting modern style is all about.

No real need for trackers or even torrent files.

Just a hash that is needed to find that particular set of files.

This is found in the magnet links on e.g. TPB. (still usable in no-brein-ridden Netherlands)

And does P haz the password?

Im not talking about downloading them or a way to find the because I have ever video released and some not released on those discs etc

Im just talking about the ridiculousness of it all..not even the copyright themes etc

Its just dumb that we cant post When Doves Cry..a friggen video lol..or else there will be trouble.

Im not talking about some underground website that had downloadable bootlegs audio and such but about posting simple videos because it has his image

It's crazy

Prince could use someone young but sensible in the camp who could explain to him about this kind of thing.

And by young I don't mean piece of ass.

Why young?

Shit, why cant funkhalleberry just tell him?

nukkas are scared?

Funkenberry is young(er) isn't he? Not mid-50s any way! It's not really an age thing, just someone with a sensible head on their shoulders - I sense no one around has that, or if they do - yes they're too scared of what they'll lose or miss if they use it.

People Pleaser Official Music Video in 1080p?

Nice, France 20ten Dreamer video?

Ooohhhh there's so much nice stuff.

The line isn't fast.

I ain't got it all.

But once this gets started...

Since no one dont wanna listen to me I'll say it again.

Prince Ends Deal with Universal Music

Prince has decided to part ways with Universal Music Publishing, according to Music Week.

The icon and Universal have been partners for several years and he renewed his contact with them in 2005.

“We are pleased to announce that Prince and Universal have reached a mutual agreement in terminating their long standing publishing deal,” said Prince’s manager, Kiran Sharma. “It is an exciting opportunity for Prince to consider fresh and new ideas for all his music.”

The agreement covered the cataloging of his future works as well as his albums Musicology, 1999, Sign O’ The Times, Diamonds and Pearls, Parade, Around the World in a Day, Emancipation, Purple Rain, and the soundtrack from Batman.

At the time of the renewal, David Renzer, who was CEO at the time, expressed excitement at the potential of a long-term collaboration. “The fact that he is re-signing to Universal Music Publishing Group speaks to the dedication and commitment we can show to a world-class high caliber artist like Prince,” said Renzer. “We are thrilled to have concluded this deal and consider it a privilege to continue our long-term relationship with him.”

Turns out the relationship wasn’t so long-term after all.

Prince has long had a rocky relationship with his music companies. Back in the 1990s, he famously changed his name to an unpronounceable love symbol and increased his output to get out of a testy contract dispute with Warner Brothers. Since the release of his first album in 1978, the 54-year-old artist has sold more than 80 million records worldwide, won seven Grammys, a Golden Globe and an Academy Award, been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004 and was ranked by Rolling Stone as number 27 on its list of the 100 Greatest Artists of all time.

It gives me more time to notice how absurd it all is.

I am serious.

No it's not. You are all talking about videos being all about "promo" but many videos cost a ridiculous amount of money to make and every time a video is made public on TV royalty fees are due. To the owner of copyright of the song, the recording AND the video.

Why not on the internet?

Moreover. If it were you, would you agree with fans wanting to be free to post whatever video they like? Even if only "official" ones, like you imply, what if you simply don't want those to be made public anymore?

^^^pod person..they got to you

Give me a break. If that's your reply, you are not serious at all. If I give you a little counter argument, you can also deal with it as a grown up.

Have you further realised that the rights to most recordings still belong to WB? Those recording are used as well in most videos fans want to post. What about them, no complaints?

I blame Housequake.com

they got crazy with it

Aw, come on now, I migrated here from Housequake.com. ?

They were brazen. Not only promo vids but vids of unreleased sessions, concert etc. I knew sometime Prince's folks were going to take notice and say "aye! wtf!?"

Yeah, you are right, but damn it was fun? Now that you put it that way, even though I never posted, all of us who posted and/or watched messed it up for everyone else, but damn that was fun!

I could give two fucks about seeing Prince videos and have felt that way for years now so if Prince wants it that way so be it

I dont care either but we should be able to post them and discuss them without reciprocating with legal action.

We should be able to stream his audio/video vault through a stealth line to a ustream chat room, why can't we do that? I'm taking it to the extreme.

[Edited 11/8/12 19:27pm]

I agree,it's ridiculous that we can't post official Prince videos and discuss 'em here I would like to ask Prince,how much harm could it do? No one would be profiting off him.And I'm not even talking about posting bootleg/unreleased/rare stuff.I'm talking about officially released videos that the world has seen dozens of times.I just don't see why he thinks it would hurt him,financially or otherwise,if we were alllowed to post them.

I don't understand why ..? why can't we post or view his past videos..those videos have contributed to his fame and to sell all his albums..

why doesn't he release a "site" of his own if here isn't his already..?

Why doesn't he release all his videos.., whoups because of WB, I suppose..

Anyway..There are things, I don't clearly get, I don't copy, I don't print.. ( french translation)

Purple Pleaser, why?

Purple Pleaser, why?

Because he doesn't understand how to make good relations with fans/customers.

(i.e.: also when not touring)

He had many fiasco's in the area of websites, online sales, etc.
