Not 150$ albums for sure.

Bottom line is that its cool they put these demos and outtakes out there. They just need to make them more accessable to their fans.

Give it a day or two longer and watch bittorrent sites like Suprnova, this fucker will be all over the place illegally.
And for the person that says "downloading hurts the band" fuck that. I own EVERYTHING in this set except for 12 goddamn tracks. I'm sure they wont notice the loss.

I understand that if I wanted to obtain some of these rare, unreleased or alternate version tracks I can go to the imusic store. It is sounding like some of them are "album" only tracks.
Any advice?

& if you do decide to steal music it's because you've never created anything of artisitic value be4 so you've never encountered theft...or you have real self control issues.
All of which, from the looks of thing...you've haven't quite budgeted for.
After this then we'll talk. Otherwise...
JulioArca said:Uh, hu, so you actually have to pay for U2s music now, poor you.
What do you expect, that all of U2s music should be free to download from Interference and other sites? We're all taking advantage og the net and would download everything, most notably The Bomb two weeks before its release. So what do U2 do? They try to make their music more accessible through iTunes, its their music afterall and should get paid.
I just don't think people should complain considering the amount of stuff we've downloaded that the band won't be compensated for.

I read through this whole thread again and I really dont see where people are demanding this stuff be free??? People are complaining because A.) there are only 12 songs they dont have and they dont want to pay $150 for 12 songs. OR B.) Dont have access to the download period because of where they live or cant afford a $350 Ipod or are on a dial up modem and couldnt download even if they had the other two items.
I think just about all of us here would purchase a 2 disc or even one disc set of the unreleased stuff for around $25 to $30 with no problem (and even that would be expensive). But we cant do that obviously and that is what people dont like. No one is asking for a hand out here.
How is this demanding everything for free anyway?? Also, I have never downloaded official material. I have purchased all of their official releases. I think most here have (which is ALSO indicated by most on this thread). Downloading has typically occurred with bootleg which you obviously cant purchase either (at least not legally). Personally I dont download, I dont like Mp3 quality material. You are kind of insinuating that all of us here just download all of their material for free. Thats simply not the case.
I'm not calling you out or anything. I just think you missed the point of what most people on this thread are trying to convey.
