Matthew_Page2000, have you learned any social skills in your life? Seriously?

There's no need for the level of disrespect you spew.

Oh yes there is. I'm embarrased for some of you.

I looked back on the list of songs and see that it does include the extended versions of Pride and 4th of July from the UK 12 inch. Compare the timings with the album versions. I remembered another 2 songs not included though. One and Unchained Melody live from Sydney were released on a compilation cd around 1997, but are not included here. It seems that almost every missing recording from The Complete U2 was originally eleased on compilations.

Stop sniveling for cripes sake. If you don't want to buy the whole shebang for $150 just illegally download the new songs like you did for HTDAAB.
U2 fans can be really pathetic sometimes.

p.s.--aren't there alternative takes to some album cuts as well? We haven't heard all of those yet. And there's stuff on here that has only been released on vinyl in the past. And you're bitching???

OK, we aren't upset because of the new songs, we are upset because they are only available legally to us if we spend 150 dollars on songs we already have.

Shaizari · 11-23-2004, 07:16 AM

if they had put them with HTDAAB in a set, we wouldn;'t care if it cost a little extra. trying to squeeze 150 from hardcore fans is a bit too much to handle....

Exactly.

I think its great they are doing this, but they didnt take into account that A LOT of us have 90% of this stuff legally already and just want the stuff we don't have and cant get it because 95% of that stuff is only available when you buy the whole thing.

Im not shelling out $150 for a digital collection that has 4 copies of the same song repeated all over the place.

I for one, hate this, Im from mexico and can't buy anything on itunes. I hope some of you take pitty on us rest-of-the-worlders and give us a hand. cheers!!!!!

I still have a $50 off coupon I will give to someone if they hook me up with some of the rare stuff, but keep in mind if you want my $50 OFF you have to have a way to rip your tracks to mp3 to get to me. I do not want to hassel with the AAC authorizing issues. LET ME KNOW, this could save someone planning on spending the money anway $50.

caylan · 11-23-2004, 09:03 AM

How long does it take to download via broadband?

mkjc · 11-23-2004, 09:06 AM

I read a few posts where people have said that they only want a few of the songs from the "Complete". You can get any song from it that you want for 99 cents each. I bought Fast Cars this morning for 99 cents which turned out to be useless cause I then went out and bought the Collectors edition from Best Buy which had Fast Cars on it anyway.

Shaizari · 11-23-2004, 09:13 AM

Do U2 even know what kind of marketing goes on with their stuff???

mkjc · 11-23-2004, 09:35 AM

You can buy each song individually. I did it this morning.

**neutral** · 11-23-2004, 09:38 AM

You can't buy the songs from the "unreleased and rare" section individually.

Oh ok. I bought Fast Cars by itself this morning and assumed that the rest of the set was also available individually. Sorry for the misinformation.

Jilet_sensor · 11-23-2004, 12:38 PM

I just bought the whole catalogue. Damn, it took hours to download...

Anyway, all I got now is a computer which is about the crash because of the gigabytes this thing ate

Some spoilers ahead....

There is a booklet you can download with it...
These are MP4 files.
The unreleased tracks are incredible. There the Xanax And Red Wine which is in fact..... fast cars...
There is this version of SYCMIOYO without the chorus....
There is Native Son on there, which is basically Vertigo.
There is an alternative version of Yahweh. There is an alternative version of ABOY (which to me is better than the album version) Boy boy boy. I have paid 150 euro's for this and now I'm forced to delete a bunch of tracks because otherwise I won't be able to do anything on this computer....

Please make sure you have a supercomputer!!!!!
