The Internet Is Over

Prince, in his first British interview since who-cares-when has declared that the internet is “completely over”, which is why he’s giving away his latest record in this weekend’s Daily Mirror. I guess it was good while it lasted. We had fun right? All those cats, dogs, turtles, porn… *sigh*. posted on July 5, 2010 at 2:32pm EDT
