"The Internet's completely over,” Prince told British tabloid publication, The Mirror, in his first newspaper interview in 10 years. “I don't see why I should give my new music to iTunes or anyone else. They won't pay me an advance for it and then they get angry when they can't get it.”

"“The Internet's like MTV,” he told the mirror. “At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and that can't be good for you.""

pradaboy · 07-06-2010, 03:19 PM

He's a regular visionary

kane · 07-06-2010, 03:21 PM

The best part of it is that he is saying Itunes and Youtube won't pay him for his music. So he is going a different route with no downloads for his album. All this means is that as soon as the CD comes out it will be all over the internet for free.

He's back to Prince again after he was recently The Artist

MrBottomTooth · 07-06-2010, 05:59 PM

He hasn't been relevant since his horrible movie he released decades ago.

SomeCreep · 07-06-2010, 06:34 PM

Did he go back to being called Prince? I thought he was still, "The artist formerly known as Prince."

fatfoo · 07-06-2010, 07:09 PM

Prince has a point.

There is more value in staring at a real face, instead of staring at a photograph of a face on a computer screen.

Also, a note about Youtube: full music videos be downloaded for free and also full tapings of live performances can be downloaded for free of music bands like Yeah Yeah Yeahs and other music bands.

Yanks_Todd · 07-06-2010, 07:57 PM

my god he is right. Starting tomorrow all YanksCash galleries will actually be order forms that the surfer can fill out to receive hard copies of the pictures within the galleries. But these won't be digital photos, lest the surfers head fill with numbers, but they will be drawn by hand, by me.

My premier affiliates will get color drawings and anyone with less then a sale a day will get black and white drawings.

The affiliate with the most sales in August gets a flint and tinder set, no more cold nights for that special YanksCash affililiate.

thanks Prince

mynameisjim · 07-06-2010, 08:09 PM

Perhaps people will get tired of the internet, at least how we know it now. Surfing around and wasting time. In the future it may be more seamlessly integrated with our activities so that there will be no "internet" that you go to. It's just there.

But I don't think that's exactly what he meant.

Zorgman · 07-06-2010, 08:50 PM

The second someone gets the free song(s) they will upload it to the torrent networks. Try and stop those Prince.

Adam X · 07-06-2010, 10:21 PM

What the short lil man is tryin to say, in a big way, is that he's bored with the web and he's pissed he can't sell his music the way he wants to...

The web will never die.. it will only morph, as someone above said, it will just be there...interfaces and browsers will change within IPTV's as an always-on internet view/search for anything..free and ppv, and/or on wireless computers and holographic screens as seen in Star Wars, Mission Impossible and Avatar.

Desperate attempt for attention and to stay "hip".

Sure he's called trends before, but now he's just gambling to get attention.

crazytrini85 · 07-07-2010, 01:27 AM

My life was 1000x simpler before the internet.

He is right about that. It just fills your head.

All I know is that he is a great guitarist.

milambur · 07-07-2010, 04:16 AM

I've missed a couple of artists on Spotify, for like 5 min... Then you find someting else to listen to. If they wanna be idiots and be forgotten because nobody wants to buy CDs anymore, be my guest. I haven't touched a music CD since I started using Spotify. Since you can get it for your mobile phone you got it with you everywhere, I love it.

Are the people who get black and white drawings allowed to colour them in or will you put some sort of DRM on them?

RummyBoy · 07-07-2010, 05:54 AM

You can expect these kind of rants from the music industry who've been robbed by internet piracy like never before......

Why don't we stop bullshitting and let him lead us to the Purple Rain....lol

CDSmith · 07-07-2010, 12:41 PM

He's as progressive in his thinking as the music industry in general was during the internet's rennaissance. The industry was very quick to adapt and anticipate new web-based markets, and... oh wait, no they weren't.

Yes Prince, the internet is dead. Now have a cookie. Good boy.

ProG · 07-07-2010, 12:51 PM

well, Prince is dead according to The Internet
