U2 Readies Response To Stolen CD Master

u2FROM WIRED.COM Irish rock band U2 told the London Daily Telegraph that, should an unfinished advance copy of its new album that was stolen during a photo shoot in France turn up on the Internet, it plans to immediately release the finished version on iTunes and get it into stores within a week. The record is not due for official release until November. “If it is on the Internet this week, we will release it immediately as a legal download on iTunes, and get hard copies into the shops by the end of the month,” U2 singer Bono told the paper. “It would be a real pity. It would screw up years of work and months of planning, not to mention fucking up our holidays. But once it’s out, it’s out.”
