| The third fanclub only release in U2's career came on the
tail end of the third leg of the Vertigo tour. It featured live songs
from concerts in 2005 in Chicago and Milan. The tracks from Chicago
are also available on the Vertigo 2005: Live in Chicago
DVD release. The Milan tracks are expected to be available on
DVD on an upcoming release. The 2 CD set was sent out as a gift for
renewing one's subscription for the 2006 year to the paid portion of the
website at U2.com.
The CDs were released in a cardboard gatefold sleeve, with one CD on
either side of the package. Also included was an insert card, which
thanks fans for resubscribing, reiterates the copywrite notice and telling
users that they will be banned immediately with no refund if found copying
or downloading the tracks on the CD. One CD contains eight live tracks
from the 2005 Vertigo tour. The other CD contains a combination of
video, screensavers, and computer backgrounds that are only accessible
if you have subscribed to u2.com and have a user name and password to unlock
the CDROM.
The package containing U2.Communication began shipping in December of
2005 to subscribers. If ordered with the renewal discount for resubscribers
it did not come with the keychain which was the 2005 gift. If ordered
for full price, there have been reports that the 2005 keychain gift is
included. |
