Drama queens. I have nothing against U2 but they didn't do it for free. Apple paid them 100 million dollars regardless of whether Apple charged anyone. You give me $100 and I'll bleed, sweat or whatever else for you as well.

The point is, they pushed content without permission.

U2 has now gone the way of the AOL install disc...... Everybody gets one therefore.... NOBODY wants it. I remember I liked them both, briefly in the early 90's

You accepted Apples ToS and therefor they can push what they want as long as its not charged to your account.

It is not free. It is "apple free". A 999$ iPhone cost them less than 200$, a part of the 800$ went in adv, u2 stage performance and u2 album. Nothing is free in this world, really :-)

I almost called and complained, but they were closed. I don't like anything being added to my account without my knowledge, I was originally under the impression someone had logged into my account and was making orders. I had to review all my credit card statements and rush hope to make sure no orders were made.

Free gifts are great, but I demand an option. Don't push orders onto my account. "Free gift, please click to accept" next time.

if it was one of U2's older albums, like The Joshua Tree or or All That You Can't Leave Behind or War, i would gladly accept it. but U2's last 3 albums are straight sh!t the only way i would let that garbage litter my music library is if they paid me the $100 million

So, Apple dictates what you should and shouldn't be listening to? Just like their iOS mentality :)

This is like when you get a free MP3 downloading winamp. Whatever it's free music everyone needs to chill. No good deed goes unpunished.

So does this purchase from Apple, which may or may not be realized as people actually listening to the album, move it up in the ratings. Did it drive it to Platinum before it was even released? Did U2 get $100 million and a #1 seller out of the deal?

Nice work, if you can get it.

However, I appreciate the thought, Apple. Perhaps a gift card would have been nicer.

"Never before have so many people owned one album, let alone on the day of its release,"

it's free... and without permission... how can that be special? how can that be surprising.

It makes perfect sense. A pompous, arrogant band promoted by the most pompous, arrogant company on earth for all their pompous, arrogant mindless minions.

Why in the world do you need a special tool to remove it? Sounds like crapware to me.

Five years to make 1 album when an artist like Sia can crank out a hit like Diamonds in a half hour.
