What's the source?

The title seems fishy since the line is "We're One BUT we're not the same."  It also just sounds like a crappy name for a U2 box set.

Probably just a high quality bootleg from someone with an iTunes account, but I can't say for sure.

Oh jeez... I can only wish this would be real... and released to all of us.  I have been hoping for a singles release ala depeche mode (sp?) for years.  I never got the itunes set, hoping against all odds they would make their way to a non-compressed CD format.

Edit: Oh and 4 CDs seems short considering I have made 6-7 CDs of single stuff and I only have a portion of their singles.  Seems to me this would be a much larger set unless they are on the CD as compressed files.

Maybe it's only 4 CDs because they left out the b-sides missing on the 'pretty complete U2' set up on iTunes? :p

As the lyrics guy (pfft) this looks pretty dodgy to me overall.
