k

they may have bought him out but I am pretty sure he is still getting royalties.He now owns some of his masters but its a tangled mess due to distribution etc. When you get the cd's...Listen to SPACE in the dark with a candle lit..YOu'll see what I mean.Put it on repeat too!

Is it really that important?

He got paid big bucks for his work with WB, he agreed to the terms and conditions of his contracts and reaped the stated rewards.

No one got shafted, so enjoy the music.

No that is not important, I don't think Prince got the shaft. I just wanted to know his royalty structure worked. WB was more than fair. Man, take it easy.
