Even I, a person with pretty much no entreprenurial sense whatsoever, knew that
the $25 membership was a bad long-term business move. Sadly, those new to the
Prince way of thinking probably believed that lifetime meant THEIR lifetime,
not the lifetime of his attentian span.
I do think if he
Basically he can offer space for advertisements to offset the cost of
some things while providing a more substantial content to keep people
coming back in. and maybe a monthly fee like 9.99 a month for
membership. And for gods sake offer some of the music he has in his
vault that hasn't been
I'm with ya on this one.
2004 was a slammin' year with all the hype attached. But, this is a good way
to weed out the ones who were just there for the joy ride. Even when the club
was $100 a year, you knew only the hardcore fans would be crazy enough to join
and keep the club alive.
HaHaHa..
That was perfectly put..
Lifetime of his ATTENTION SPAN!!
HeeHee :)

I for one have dedicated too much time, and money to just say to hell with
it when stuff like this happens. The hardcore fans will be there through the
good and the bad decisions Prince makes in his career. The $25 dollar

Bad business move? Wasn't he the earn the most that year for his
Musicology tour? $93,000,000 I believe.
Modereator: It was quoted as 87.4 million. He made that the club didn't
make that.
It doesn't look like he put any of that money back into club either.

To get around the lifetime thing, he will probably have to change the name,
but 3121 doesn't seem to have the longevity as Prince's other imagined
communities like Paisley Park or NPG. Hell, he hasn't even seemed
interested in promoting 3121 as an album, much less a website.
Then again, didn't
