The band wants an album that's different and that's fully supported by all four members. That's a good thing. But.... The wait is a bit long. Why not drop material on the internet? Songs not used on albums because they don't fit can work commercialy on their own. U2 is so oldfashioned in these things.
I would pay for digital releases as:
Mercy, North star, Every breaking wave, Stingray,
Glastonbury, Boy falls from the sky, Magnificent with gospelchoir, Get on your boots with gospelchoir, Winter (movie version), Soon and all the rare material that didn't make the fantastic U22-album. I think most of us would pay for these kind of releases.
Releasing an album once in four years is fine, but throw in something new more frequently please. And I don't mean soloprojects like Spider-Man or Cold dream colour...
