Comment Thank You Prince (Score 3) 179
Add Prince (Artist Formerly Known as?) to the list of artists who support the new music technologies such as Napster. It's nice to see respected artists come forward against the record labels and their quick to sue attitudes.
Prince's Statements (4 the love of music) are smart and straight-forward. He points out hypocrisy among the record labels own statements about this whole issue. He sets forth a good distinction between music "lovers" and music "consumers." I don't care for the way he chooses to write, reading his article with all those strange contractions and abbreviations gets kind of annoying, but it is well written and intelligent.
If only more artists saw the issues at hand the way Prince does. Thank You Prince.
