article published on 18 August, 2008

U2 front man Bono recently was unaware that he was indirectly assisting in the leak of several tracks from U2's upcoming album, No Line On The Horizon.

Maybe Bon... er should remove his sunglasses so he can see the volume control. This stinks of a publicity stunt to sell albums.

Who gives a sh*t. Those guys made 1 good album back in he 80s and everyone jumps on Bono's Jock. Their music blew in the 90's and still blows in this decade.

Them songs may have not lasted 5 minutes on YouTube, but let me guess, that's long enough to spread all over the freaking web! Read it and cry Paul McGuiness!!

Last I checked, they had some decent stuff in the 90s as well as some post-2000. But then again..you aren't Bono, are you. And you're not a millionaire.

LOL@you

Since when do you need talent to be a millionaire. Britney Spears, Puff Daddy, Bob Saget. All these fools have proven that you can be millionaires without having an ounce of talent. U2 is one of the most over-rated bands of the last 20 years. Apart from Joshua Tree, Everything else blows!

the reason they took it off youtube because it wasn't worth listening to and was taking up bandwidth...those guys are washed up and need to stop trying to protect shitty music like it's so valuable.

Bonoboner...sounds like a big ass burger at a stand. Lol.

As far as what went wrong...these whelps all (okay, not all but more than not) seem to go the same thing to different degrees. Wealth, power, fame...freakin' sellout.
