Official Prince YouTube channel Pt 2

The First one Auto Locked...so here is part 2.

Part 1: http://prince.org/msg/7/444520


So far we have MOST of the videos through Graffiti Bridge!

They have been loaded at about 9 am (org time).

Today if they follow the pattern they will release the "Diamonds and Pearls" videos and hopefully the extended version of "Thieves In the Tempel."

I'm still wondering if they'll ever add the 1st version of "I Wanna Be Your Lover".

Of course I know and it's in better resolution I think. To get it free it's appreciated meanwhile: lots of sites to download from YT.

Why not rightfully pay Prince's estate for the videos if you want them that badly on your iPod?

Because they are free on YOUTUBE so why would people buy them. This is the reason Prince did not want them up in the first place.

Because they want to own them on their iPods and YouTube is preventing them from downloading them as was previously stated.

Anyway, I understand the point you're making, but clearly, the estate sees things differently.

People who can look for free are not going to buy anything. I believe the estate may have no choice as I think this channel may have been apart of the WB deal.

Any thoughts why Purple Rain video is missing.

Can't even find official video for PurpleRain anywhere else on YouTube.

Purple Rain was never an official video clip, other than the performance from the film. Despite being a clip on the Anniversary DVD of the movie.
It's not like MTV played it when the song had its initial chart run or even years after. It was only part of the movie. Weird but true. Maybe that's why.

I'd like to see the iTunes sales figures for the Prince videos.

I bought the 1979-1986 videos so I can watch offline because I'm frequently offline for one reason or another. I know most people are more connected that I am though.

I think Prince did not care about making money he just did not like others making money off of his work.

THe estate gets royalties for their play on youtube, they get nothing when people steal them. Either buy them or watch them on youtube, don't steal them.

it is no different than recording of tv or off the radio and that is legal to do...when I watch my recording of purple rain off the DVR I doubt that the family gets paid... i see no difference between the 2... (and I have PR on DVD it is just easier to watch on the DVR)

The estate does not get royalties from YouTube - nobody does.

Monetization only works when commericals are added but only when a commercial is viewed but it must be in it's entirety.

Viewed commercials need to be in the multiple millions before any significant money is earned.

Also, to answer a point above from someone... the videos can be downloaded but only at 480p.

you get something like 0.7 cents per ad view or about $7 per 1000 views

So this is not a revenue source for anyone so once again Prince was correct. Why waste time with a YOUTUBE site that does not bring in money.
