Reclusive Rock Moron Prince apparently spends his time "scouring the internet" to find out whether anyone still cares about his music, or him. And if he finds someone who still, for some wild reason, thinks that he's either relevant or interesting, he'll take them down.
That's the gist of what I get from this news article about Universal putting a woman in fear of her home for posting a video of her baby dancing.
When Stephanie Lenz first posted the video of her son dancing, with 29 seconds of the Prince song "Let's Go Crazy," (which Prince made about 20 years ago, and which marks the high point of his "creativity," as well as the last time anyone paid any attention to him in a positive way), she wanted friends and family to watch it, and 28 of them did. Then she got a "take-down" notice from Youtube, and began to fear that she would get sued and lose her house. 
I've watched the video. The baby's cute (cute enough for me to repost the video to Babies! Babies! Pets! Pets! and you can see it there ) but you can barely make out what song it is, and there's really absolutely no chance of anyone deciding to watch this video rather than go buy Prince's song. (Interestingly, the part of the song you hear is the phrase "Come on baby, let's get nuts." I think Prince is already there.)
In any event, it seems to have backfired. Since reposting it, over 125,000 people have now viewed the video -- most of them no doubt sent there by news reports of Prince's hissy-fit.

He needs a reality check.
There is/was no money making off the video.
I saw the video, it is very cute.
