Prince has a new album called 20Ten coming out, but if you’re hoping to download it, don’t even fucking think about it. In an interview with the UK’s Daily Mirror, the Artist declared:The Internet’s completely over. I don’t see why I should give my new music to iTunes or anyone else. They won’t pay me an advance for it and then they get angry when they can’t get it…The internet’s like MTV. At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good.They just fill your head with numbers and that can’t be good for you. Prince has also removed his music from YouTube and iTunes, and this is what his MySpace page looks like. Instead, he’ll be giving away 2.5 million free copies of 20Ten on Saturday, July 20 via a more traditional media form — the record will come packaged inside the Daily Mirror and Scotland’s Daily Record. See? Newspapers aren’t dead!
