It was mentioned the lawsuit was dropped days ago

I stand corrected
Probably just as well I never took up law

"I've made some great headway on the Prince lawsuit... what do you mean? When? That long ago!? Why wasn't I told? What newspaper? And Basschat!? I guess I really don't have any excuse now for not knowing..."

[/quote]You haven`t been corrected.I only knew because i read it a few days ago. It can be difficult coming into a topic late and trawling through all the posts

I doubt his lawyers care very much either way, I bet they still made a nice pile of cash for services rendered.

That's interesting. It makes it seem like his management or label are the ones dictating the litigations (if they are even true), or else he is lying. Very hard to tell. It seems quite peculiar.

Here' sang interesting piece about the sort of mess music buyers faced in 2005 - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4474143.stm

Fast forward a decade (almost) and the latest issue (Apr 14) of the same magazine is reporting how piracy is in decline because DRM has been dropped and streaming service such as spotify and netflix are making it easier for people to access content for a relative pittance.

A triumph for technology enabling the consumer over the monopolistic tendency of the music business?
