May, 2000, when his contract with Warner ran out. So -- he's "The Artist Formerly Known As 'The Artist Formerly Known As Prince'".

Prince, a longtime artists' rights advocate, filed at least nine lawsuits against Web sites in 1999, accusing them of selling bootlegged recordings and offering access to downloads of his songs.
| I wondered how he had the money to change his name and put together a new CD release 
If he depended on me, he'd be BROKE
It is wrong of the guy to sell bootlegged cd's,and he should be punished.I don't kow about $150,000 a song though,Just IMO

Why would he sue websites? They're keeping his fading career alive.

He wasnt selling bootleg Prince cd's all he had was linkage on his website to locations where songs "could possibly" be d/l'd---
THAT is rediculous!...

I don't think I will be buying anything price related - for me, if the artist is an A-HOLE, then I just don't want to listen to him. I could Prince getting upset IF the guy had the files on his site, but suing over links, that's petty...
