On Wednesday, everyone that is heading out to the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival in two weeks received the news of a surprise addition to the line-up – Prince. Coachella is always surrounded by rumors about the line-up and potential to almost impossible reunions, such as The Smiths, before the official announcements are made in January. Every year, fans debate and dispel rumors regarding which bands & artists will play the festival out in Indio, CA on blogs, message boards, and MySpace.

San Francisco - Following a rash of cease-and-desist letters sent to fansites hosting photos of the recording artist, Prince is planning to file lawsuits against notorious BitTorrent tracker site The Pirate Bay in Sweden, France and the U.S., CNET News.com reported.

Los Angeles - Recording artist Prince has in recent weeks launched efforts to have all websites -- including those created by his fans -- remove all instances of his likeness, lyrics and other elements, prompting some to join together at PrinceFansUnited.com to combat the effort, CMJ.com reported on Tuesday.

London - Recording artist Prince plans to sue websites including YouTube, eBay and the Pirate Bay for copyright infringement, and has recently requested the removal of some 2,000 videos from YouTube, MediaGuardian.co.uk reported.

Basking Ridge, N.J. - Verizon Wireless announced on Thursday that it is offering its subscribers the exclusive opportunity to download a free copy of Prince's new single, "Guitar," to their phones weeks before his forthcoming album "Planet Earth" is available in stores. In order to download the track, subscribers will have to utilize the company's free V CAST Song ID service, by holding their phones up to a speaker playing the song, which will be available on Verizon's site as well as YouTube, Revver, Veoh and MySpace. The service will then identify the song and download it to the phone.
