That's a fair and valid point, although I would argue that the bad taste left by the release method skewed opinions negatively before anyone even listened to it.
Yeah, probably. But I think that if people liked the album more then opinions would have been skewed back. Maybe not, though. Maybe people are just really, really tired of U2 and the reception would have been negative regardless of how they presented the album, or the quality. I think this era may be too cynical for U2.
Of course are there people who don't like it. They've always been there! Now we know because of the internet . By the way, there are loads of people who like the album.

Well yeah, the ani-U2 sentiment is a lot stronger because we can see it online. But just look at the reviews. They're awful.
