They've learned from Radiohead, who let you nominate the price.
It's like Rory playing golf - he never really had to made a crust like other pros...because of the contracts he has, he can shoot a 64 or 82 and play with a lot of risk. U2 are minted - they don't need the money...plus the big money is in touring and...they own shares in Apple anyway. |

I've change my mind about lots of things in the ten years I've posted on chit chat.
But U2 are still chancers. |

I was 13 when I bought Boy was so different to anything around me and my mate were fanatics always out looking for bootlegs in record shops or on tapes
think we were classed as the school wierdos as only 2 in the whole school that liked them.Everyone was either into all the electro sh1te or rock,first 3 albums boy,october and war were great as a teenager I still love those albums,as with all middle aged bands the music becomes dire,they were never great musicians but paul hewson must be one of the greatest singers of all time.Long time since I've listened to any of their stuff probably zooropa last thing I listened to was ok but I couldn't bring myself to listen to their later stuff. |

It's a good album and a very clever move promotion wise.

Like as been said already... U2 have had their day. I couldn't name any of their last 3 or 4 albums, good in their time, mind, but that time has gone. Unless I listen and hear different I suppose.

And according to the 'New York Times', Apple paid the band and Universal an unspecified fee as a blanket royalty and committed to a marketing campaign for the band worth up to $100 million in order to release the album 'for free'
“This is a gift from Apple to their customers,” Mr. Oseary said. “They bought it and they are giving it away.” |
