According to the news:
Prince is taking legal action to stop Web sites from using copyrighted images, a concert promotion company announced Friday.
Contrary to reports, the Purple One is not suing his fans or looking to inhibit free speech in any way, AEG, which promoted Prince's concert series in London, said in a statement.
"The action taken earlier this week was not to shut down fan sites, or control comment in any way," the statement read. "The issue was simply to do with in regards to copyright and trademark of images and only images and no lawsuits have been filed."
Three Web sites published copyrighted images and live photos from Prince's London concerts, according to AEG. "Mediation between the parties is currently resolving the matter," the group's statement said.

What the Prince did was right. We really need to acknowledge properly the source or follow the law (like do not publish the copyrighted material) or else, we'll get in trouble. Hopefully bloggers, web publishers, web writers will be more responsible.
