  1. Why is it that bonus tracks always occur on English versions and never on normal European versions? And why is there a Limited Deluxe Edition in the US and not over here?
    In other words: why so many different versions? All fans are equal, but some are more equal than others???

    I have no idea what is the best option to buy and where to buy it. U2 has been very confusing when it comes to releases of this size 🙁

  3. 4 (four!) different versions?? For crying out loud, do they want to see me go bankrupt? And you won’t be able to see from the outside what the extra track is? This is going to be a very, very expensive autumn!

  5. Wow, 4 versions. I know where to get 2 of them. By the time they’re all released someone will post the the extra track on each best of and each hidden track on each (if there is one). I’m not worried about finding them, but its going to cost me some money. It sucks being a fanatic. 🙂

  7. so, with no Fly, can it be said that for 3 of the 4 versions, the ‘best of’ is the sound of 4 men swatting dead the 90s?

  9. Apparently so. Methinks those of you in different territories than the US & UK may be treated to some of the singles left off the tracklist. Which ones? Well, which ones are gonna be on the bonus DVD?…
