I love Prince!!! In a manly way though.
He's never saw eye to eye with the Music Industry for decades, and now he gives them the ultimate middle finger. Prince plans on giving away a free CD in a national British newspaper, to the dismay of many executives in the music industry. One Entertainment Retailers Association spokesman Paul Quirk stated:
'The Artist Formerly Known as Prince should know that with behavior like this he will soon be the Artist Formerly Available in Record Stores. And I say that to all the other artists who may be tempted to dally with the Mail on Sunday' he went on with this statement: "It would be an insult to all those record stores who have supported Prince throughout his career,"
What? I didn't know that the record stores were doing Prince a favor by selling and making money off of his talent. I love it when an artist says (I've got enough money, I'm going to give back to the fans who have supported me for a change).
Read the rest after the jump. [Guardian Unlimited via Slashdot.org]
