   Summary: Great value and hard to resist
The hardest part with a collection like this is that, if you're a long-time or ardent fan, you'll already own more than half these tracks. The unique packaging, new sleeve inserts and rare tracks help to make it more attractive. But it was the lure of buying this exclusive from Amazon for less than the cost of buying 2 individual deluxe CD's from my usual store that was the clincher.

I'm no audiophile but I have to say I think the remastered albums sound good and have an appealling clarity and depth to them.

In terms of the bonus discs my only gripe is with War and the lack of variety on it. I don't really want to listen to 4 consecutive remixes of New Year's Day and 3 of Two Hearts; one of each would have been enough.

The poster is an odd edition. Uncreased, it would have been worthy of framuing and putting on display. But after being folded and packed in the box, why would you bother?

In summary, this collection is only for the most dedicated fan or a good starting point if you don't own any U2 or are a late convert.

As a fan for over 20 years, tougt that I saw everything. But this masterpiece from the past, U2 made it better. Not recommended for general use, but as U2's fan I will recommend to all who adore U2 as much as I do.

   Summary: U2 Box set is Magnificent
What can I say? This is one fine collection of the greatest band in the world! U2 has made a wise and awesome choice here to bring out the classic albums and rework them for today's new generation of music lovers. I am sorta the bridge between the early years of U2 and the Future of U2. I was too young to know about these 3 albums as I was growing up, and caught U2 fever in the JT/R&H era. The driving force for me to purchase this was an awesome b-side "A Celebration". I have been obsesed with this little ditty since I watched those old MTV A-Z video collections. This song struck me as no other U2 b-side. I don't know how this was left off any album and finally is back in glorious re-editing for my listening pleasure. So all in all this is an awesome set even if you own the CD's from way back or the LP's from even farther back. The sound is amazing and Edge out did himself on this. If you are a fan of U2 or just curious about this band, pick this Deluxe Edition up. The poster and the b-sides are worth it enough, then you include the albums and its just gravy on the potatoes, icing on the cake, and pickle relish on your hot dog. This is well worth the money and you save a few bucks than buying the 3 seperate remasters and no poster.

Buy buy buy!

   Summary: U2 first 3 albums deluxe
Nice package of the first 3 albums of U2. All three of them have a bonus disc with live performances or remixes of the songs on the orginal disc.
In comparison with the european edition, you get an extra box in which you can store these 3 albums, together with a mini-poster.
The 4th album - Under a blood red sky - of which a deluxe edition will come later this year, can also be stored in this box.
