And while I am sure there will be a lot of "why is this story on HN" comments, Prince was an occasional news maker in the area of digital music.

He was a bit of a curmudgeon when it came to digital music in that he wasn't a fan of it or the services that provide it.

Interesting, however, that he was a fan of SoundCloud.
