    There’s not many places I feel safe saying this, but I’m going to go ahead and say it here. I don’t really like U2s music. There I said it. I genuinely don’t understand their massive popularity.

      I think Joshua tree is alright but all the other tapes I have of theirs sits in a bin ready to get used for testing crappy decks

    1. It showed up one day in your apple library
    2. You couldn’t delete or remove it
    3. The band’s stupid name stood out in any library due to it being short
    4. At the time you couldn’t get rid of the album. It sat there eating up memory space and the best you could do was disable the album from playing in shuffle.
    5. Thank you OP for reminding me about this. It took over a decade but I finally got that album out of a now empty music library on a device that sat unused in a drawer. At some point between then and now deleting the album from your library became easy. Back in the drawer it goes.

      I was there and I went from not knowing anything about U2 to absolutely hating it all.

      Until I expanded my music tastes, I only had rap and hip-hop in my playlist. And suddenly this Bono guy just shows up? 🤬
