Prince Says Internet Is Over

Posted by samzenpus on from the it-was-fun-while-it-lasted dept.

the_arrow writes "According to the artist currently known as Prince, 'The internet's completely over.' At least that what he says in an interview with the British newspaper Mirror. Quoting Prince: '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 At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated.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.'"

    Do you really want to mess with a guy who owns ass-less pants and who invented the bat-dance? I say just nod politely and walk away.
