Prince is preparing lawsuits against a host of major Web sites- including YouTube, ebBay and BitTorrent site the Pirate Bay - in an effort to regain control of bootlegged music, videos and merchandise. Although no legal action has been taken, the singer recently enlistedhelp from Web Sheriff, a London-based company that scours the Net for offending sites. "It's just a matter of clearing out the worst commercial piracy," says Web Sheriff's John Giacobbi, who has forced the removal of 2,000 illegally uploaded Prince viseos from YouTube and more than 300 auctions of bogus merchandise from eBay. article by Rolling Stone
