There is a note in the NPGMC forum:

Perhaps this notice will clear up any confusion brought on by the CAUSE emale u received recently. Not long ago, an UNauthorized version of the concert film SIGN O THE TIMES surfaced online. Supposedly originating in Brazil and distributed by WEA International- this DVD is not something that was approved by Prince or any of his affiliates. Enuff is enuff...

We all know that Prince is one of the most bootlegged artists of his generation and while much of this activity is tolerated, it crosses the line when Prince's 4mer record company who is entrusted 2 steward his catalogue gets in the mix.

The CAUSE emale is a simple request 2 show a Federal Court the actual truth of this age-old riff between ARTIST and LABEL.

Even if u were kind enuff 2 send us just ONE cd that is shown on the list u were mailed, it will serve as ample notice that we r tired of this endless MISrepresentation of this man's life-long work. He deserves better.

Let Prince steward his OWN catalogue, then the "coupled", poor-quality, unmastered versions of his classics would cease. Imagine in 2004, a brand-new, prisitine, RE-mastered version of PURPLE RAIN released on high definition DVD with xtras, outtakes and liner notes from the Artist himself arriving at ur door. That alone is worth the effort of helping us with the CAUSE.

Anxiety said:

dude! i cannot believe you didn't hear the news...

I keep up on all the latest Prince news. As long as he doesn't go getting all super-religious on us, I'm cool with whatever...

Your late and nothing is explained as the orginal email said nothing about the DVD or mailing our copies to Ohio. Instead the email asked us to mail our copies of cd's that we legally purchased (including one I bought from Prince at Paisley Park) to Ohio with no explanation or reason.

Prince was covering and is full of shit as usual. But hey...in the long run who cares...we all know that Prince is a nut.
