I think this is the only explanation that's needed, but people will write 500+ comments bitching about it, 250 flames from Fandroids and 250 Apple-cannot-do-wrong from Appleboys.
But when you enable data roaming, it's because you need it. And you usually know what you're downloading too. This album just appeared in the purchased list with no warning.
Imagine people who were roaming at the time. I've read somewhere that the cost was potentially around USD$2000.
Why Apple didn't simply put the album online with a price of "free" instead of pushing it into all the iTunes accounts? I'm sure U2 was trying to get platinum status and their stunt just backfired. There's a difference between free and spam.
That means almost five month and a half to produce a single song. In the real world where you need to do real work, you'd have starved to death long before you could finish your album.
So, they'll go to Subway, wait in line to be served, tell them what I want in my sub, pick up a bag of chips, fill the oversized cup with my choice of drink and then deliver it to me, all of that inside five minutes?
I'd rather wait for the McCopter to deliver my Big Mac and fries.
Come to think of it, we need to send our backups in alternate universes and/or dimensions because our own universe will be destroyed by the next big crunch.

Stupid Slashdot can't even display UTF8 correctly. That was supposed to read "16um".
Thanks for nothing, "nerds" website. We're in 2014, get with the damn program instead of fucking about with your stupid beta layout.
In other news, Nanon is expected to release 16m ICs soon.

You know who likes that new HTC phone? The Hunchback of Notre-Dame.
Macs I'd Like to Fuck? Eww.

Given a set of confusing and not-so-clear instructions, even humans can have problems following orders.
You scan the bio-implants of the two persons to see which one is more valuable to society.
Isn't that the Travelling salesman problem?
ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, PBS, MTV, FBI, CIA, IBM, D&D, WoW, LoL.
Anonymous Coward wins this chain of replies with his informative post, even though I can't find that particular bit of information on Wikipedia.
Then they didn't "pour 5 years of their soul" into this album.
How about "basic human rights"?
It would take too much resources to re-encode all the movies upside-down.

After all this time, why hasn't someone or a group came up with alternate assets and make them available for free?
