Music rights clearance issues (policy being implemented by the ISU starting in 2024)

Prince was really stingy about rights when he was alive, but his estate has not cared at all. I'm not surprised he had no issues.

Other skaters had to change Prince programs before the Olympics due to rights issues. (Les Gacs, at least)

His estate has cared, though -- it's why Lauriault/Le Gac couldn't skate their Prince RD here and had to create a new one.

But there have been a fair number of skaters since his death that have skated to Prince at the Olympics since his death.

It's not like it's a 0% chance it will work. Maybe it's song to song?
