Prince Moves To Sue Fans Sites

My first response was… Does prince have fans? It turns out he does, and it turns out he has served legal notices to owners of Prince fan sites ordering them to remove all images of the singer, his lyrics and “anything linked to his likeness”.

I have an idea for these fan site owners… replace all photos of him with a photograph of a pile of crap, because that’s what he is.

I can understand a crackdown on the illegal proliferation of his music, but to serve a notice to fan sites based on images or “anything linked to his likeness” is a bit extreme - barring copyrighted photography.

Get over yourself Prince, everyone else has!

Hehe, sounds like he’s going to sink back into obscurity. Can’t imagine being the fan of someone who won’t let me have their photo or lyrics up on my site, provided I credit where it’s due.
