U2 and HBO

Has anyone noticed how these cool HBO shows have referenced U2?

Sopranos: Elevation song in background when Carmela and Andriana work out. Mysterious Ways song in background in the Bing when Tony bashes that bartender's head.
Sex and the City: EBTTRT playing while Carrie was having sex one time; and when this angry husband blasted his wife for losing his U2 CD.
Curb Your Enthusiam: When Larry goes to the U2 concert and his doctor found out and Larry gets pissed that his maid mentioned it to the doctor.
Six Feet Under: Brenda was talking about 80's music and mentioned U2.
Entourage: When they go to the U2 concert.

I hear the new series, Rome, is going to mention U2. Remember, the name Bono Vox is Latin.

They seem to really like U2 on the Today Show too. I've seen several segments this summer featuring U2 tracks.
