Other than that it sounds like a neat idea, but what about those of us who don't own an iphone or ipad or whatever?

It IS annoying, but he has been talking about it

He even talked about it before NLOTH, remember that digital whatever that he said their new album would be? We spent weeks debating what it could be :-|

Can someone summerize these last news in one sentence or two please? Can't read back that much at all but what's the news?

Hello Kirsten! I found a summary here:

Essentially the next U2 record may be released as a digital application, but it is all very speculative at this stage.

You'll beat Olof to top poster 2012 if you keep it up

It could be anything. A few bands have apps available. Bon Jovi have/had one to supplement their previous tour. It had a music player for purchased songs, a phot o library, news etc. Black Eyed Peas have an app for an interactive video single. I also read that Lady GaGa, All American Rejects, Pussycats Dolls and more also have an app.

Essentially the content is the same, tailored to each artist. Hopefully U2 will create something along the lines of Having videos uploaded from the tour, photos, news, ability to import your U2 library into the app for a more interactive listening experience and videos of the band, messages from them. Then use it to deliver the new album.
