I did not seek any permissions in the past 4 years.

I have not.
But i think the estate or whoever is in charge of OKing that shit is more likely to say “yes” just because they don’t mind his music being everywhere to keep his legacy alive

“I Wanna Be Your Lover” was used in Ready Player One 2 years ago

for what purpose do i ask? i think of prince as being (understandably) strict about the use of his songs, so just 1dered if the estate would follow that policy.

or, for what purpose would one seek permission? I personally was thinking about film soundtrack purposes, but any purpose imaginable would be interesting to hear about, thanks!

thanks for your perspective, the legacy reason makes sense cool thanks for the example, too!
