jon_chaissonOkay. So iTunes is offering up the entire U2 catalog for $149.99. According to the ad, that's 446 songs, including over 100 live cuts, remixes, covers, and demos, and 40 unreleased tracks. This includes every single they've ever released, even the early ones you can't find anywhere. I am so sorely tempted to buy this. Really. I'm not the biggest U2 fan there ever was (but they're in the top 10), but I like them well enough (and I'm that much of a music fanatic) that 33 cents a song is actually quite a good deal.
Now I've asked at least six people what they think of this. I've explained how many songs, how much it costs, and everything. And I'm actually trying to see if they can talk me out of it. So far, only one person has suggested that it would be more fun to make it a long-lasting quest to find the originals instead. Everyone else has said it's actually a good deal. No one has really talked me out of it. *sigh*
Again, I am so sorely tempted. I'm even contemplating cleaning out some of my hard drive to make sure I can fit 446 more mp3s on there (I'm sure I can do it, I have at least 28 more gigs...).
