is threatening to sue a number of websites which he claims are pirating his
music and videos.

The
Pirate Bay have been named as possible targets for the legal challenge.
"Very few artists have ever taken this kind of action over their rights,"
said a spokesman for the musician.
"Yet Prince has shown time and time again that he is ready to challenge the
system in new ways to put artists and music first."
The 49 year-old artist has asked for more than 2,000 videos currently
uploaded on YouTube to be removed.
Prince is being represented as part of an anti-piracy campaign by
Web
Sheriff, which monitors the internet for copyright breaches. The company
hopes to attract other major stars to its movement.
