The Prince and the Paper

July 16, 2007

Further to Karl’s post on the wonderfulness that is The Daily Mail, it reminded me of the fact they were giving away the brand new, not yet released, Prince/Symbol/Bambi on Testosterone album for free yesterday. Yet another reason not to buy the newspaper then!

I’m all one for free music, of course, and like the fact he has done this and is going to give out free copies at his gigs. Though I too don’t think that it should be counted in the UK charts - it’s newspaper sales you idiots, not CD sales. They can’t say the same amount of people would buy the album if it was released in the shops, nor can they say everyone who purchased the newspaper did so for the album.
