What about the t-shirts and artwork? surely Liam has a hand in designing it?

back in the days it was all about the partys, music and drugs. the lads went to the next level, selling us the safe sex shit.
what's next, a manual of not taking drugs?
maybe a prodigy rehab center.
who knows, maybe they're collecting money to retire in 2010?

The condom is a funny gimmick but the overpriced limited shirts and prints etc. are their new marketing strategy to squeeze every last penny from the fans as possible. If owning your own label leads you to become this money grabbing conglomerate then it is a sad day for this old fan and I will be very wary in the future on where my albums/gig money goes.

Regarding the expensive poster from Stuart Semple, I think it's a good price for a limited piece of artwork. Some of his stuff sells for £80,000!! It could be worth loads in in the future, look at some of the prices Banksy's prints sell for and they aren't even originals!

I think the condom is a tad over priced - the local pub sells them cheaper and they glow in the dark

they should sell rare tracks for high prices, i'd accept that! but on the note posted, i have to agree, they are pushing it a litte too much, but not much bothered about it since i'm a student and can only afford the merc/releases i truly "need" anyway

will all the moaners please shut up! Nobody is forcing you to buy the stuff. Obviously there are plenty of Prodigy fans with more money than sense because they wouldnt be selling the stuff if there wasnt people buying it

Don't tell us to shut up. The point is the Prodigy selling out and slapping their logo on anything and everything, not so much what it costs. That should be apparent to even the slower fanbase. You should understand if you had been into them since their origins and took pride in what they used to represent.

The shop is having a sale, some of the t-shirts are half price. They'll still make a profit on them. Why can't they sell them at that price all the time? Economies of scale and all!

If they are going to sell something useful, how about a nice black tie with the ant logo on, it would look the bollocks!

Every band / star etc ever has done this, it has always happend and always will happen. Anything a logo can get stuck on it will be (am amazed the boys aint done an Ipod skin). Its the way the world works.

Some people will pay over the odd`s for Prada bags etc when u can find the same on the markets for £5. There is a naughty feeling in treating yourself to something that is OTT, the money men know this & milk it - and et we still do it (including myself).

I dont like the thunder print - not for £300 so guess what - im not buying one. If it was £50-£100 i could "treat myself".Does it make me any less of a fan - i dont think so, i still got my ticket stubs from the 90`s cd`s tapes, memories etc.
Would i be envious of someone who had the thunder print? yup, same way as i envy ferrari owners.

The simple solution : You dont like at the price, you dont buy.
Im not having a pop, just relax and go with the flow

Are you coming on to me? Flattered, but I'm afraid I don't go that way, even if I am from Brighton. X
