Pop Star Prince to Sue The Pirate Bay

I think (though I don't know specifics) the Prince has been solo IE without the backing of a major label for some time, and publishes his own music via his own label.

Remember when he had to change his name to a strange symbol in the 90s? I think it was because whatever record company he had a contract with was screwing him over, and the only way for him to get out from under was to leave his name behind.

Sure, he's a bit strange and silly looking - but most of you idiots who are calling him a fag and whatnot have probably never even listened to his records.

He's probably one of the most underrated guitarists of the last 20 years. He's a pretty fucking sick musician, and I respect that.

And this is coming from an old hardcore/metal guy.
 
well, he's quite exentric...
 
^^ Or how about the dog? :p
 
well, he's quite egocentric...

He's an idiot who 's let his riches go to his head like some others of his type. He soon forgot the roots from whence he came from. When his label goes after a mother who put a video on you tube of her baby dancing to one of his songs for 20 seconds and its barely audible then he's a sicko if he lets his label do what it did, kind of reminds me how similar he is to the likes of M Jackson. When reality become boring they allow themselves to become twisted. The old adage "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely".
 
Prince does a great deal of writing for other artists. Im sure there are songs out there that you guys love that he wrote. I honestly think he has a right to defend his work. Its HIS work. Just because he's rich doesn't mean he shouldn't have rights. Pirate Bay promotes stealing and thats the bottom line.

On a side note I hope hes only sucsessful in getting his music removed for the exact reason IcrushitI stated. I do think record labels have been robbing people for years. Pirate Bay is a good way of "payback" to them. Honestly 20+ bucks for a CD!?!
 
Seen that Prince gave away his latest album for free in the papers in the UK and Ireland, whats he on about sueing the pirate bay. Hes some pr1ck! hope he gets financially ruined after this. Who actually gives a t0ss about him anyway, he fell of the music seen ages ago, i wouldnt cross the street to see him, nevermind download his sh1tty album.
