Calle del Alfabeto
Bloggers, have you ever posted a video and then gone back to the post months later to find that the video has been removed by the original poster? Happens all the time here and this blog is littered with empty YouTube frames that make those posts pointless.
In some cases, it's a music publisher claiming copyright infringement, which in this day and age, is the dumbest move a music publisher/record label could make. When people are stealing your music from LimeWire and a host of other places, why not allow your music a little free play that doubles as promotion for your artist? Maybe someone sees this video of Prince (being painfully slow-hosted via two or three servers, with the original host being in Romania) and goes out and buys some Prince music on iTunes.
It could happen. Now please enjoy the funky fun of the Minnesota Vikings' most famous fan before it gets removed again.

Love me some Prince. I remember this when you first posted it, pre-Tennessee.
Thinking of you in your extended unemployment. How was the cake?
