Long time U2 Frontman, Bono, has apologized to its fans and iTunes users about automatically downloading their newest album, “Songs of Innocents” onto user’s computers without their consent. Bono said in part:
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!
“Oops. Um. I’m sorry about that. I had this beautiful idea and we got carried away with ourselves.
Artists are prone to that kind of thing. Drop of megalomania, touch of generosity, dash of self-promotion, and deep fear that these songs that we poured our life into over the last few years might not be heard.
There’s a lot of noise out there. I guess we got a little noisy ourselves to get through it.”
U2 and Apple made the album free for all iTunes users – except they didn’t tell them that the album would be automatically sent to iTunes’s customers.
