Brian: I guess the 12-inch versions of several Prince singles are still not available for download on Rhino's site? |

Only the 12-inch singles for "Let's Go Crazy" and "Raspberry Beret" are currently available. The 12-inchers for "I Wanna Be Your Lover" and "Kiss" were listed, but have been removed. Allegedly they were on there as "placeholders," but I guess they finally got tired of getting calls asking why they couldn't be purchased, and took them off.

So no long version of "Love or Money" yet? That's a bummer.

Wow, glad I downloaded the lossless "Love or Money" while it was available, because the single has been taken off Rhino's site now. It's really sad the Rhino has more or less abandoned their download service. They have kept a lot of it, but they haven't added anything new for a long time, and everything that's still there is now "album only," for the most part. Most things aren't downloadable by track anymore. Very curious.

I agree Brian. I would have liked to have seen more Prince, Doors and Eagles digital 45s.

I understand that those Digital 45s were a very sensitive
subject for Warner. I have no details about why, but it's
something I have been told by those in the know.
I'm also glad I downloaded as many of those lossless
digital 45s as I needed.
