BD Live Updates - Disapointed So Far

Wed, 2010-08-11 16:09

Anyone disapointed with the BD live updates so far ?

Most are very short clips, and there are no full live tracks.
Except - "Breathe", which is already on the Blu Ray bonus material, so why is this on the BD live updates, when we already have it on the Blu Ray Disc?
The videos are identical.

The other material which is on the BD live, like the "We're Back" message is the same as www.u2.com. This is a nice addition, but what this technology is all about is delivering exclusive tracks to people who bought the Blu Ray. Maybe it's a bit premature to be saying this but so far, this is not happening.

I'm excited about this new technology, but U2 need to start releasing some full live song clips. We are 2 gigs into the 2010 tour and nothing new has been released. U2 played 3 brand new tracks last Friday August 6th at the opening gig in Turin and that would have been a real exlusive to release even 1 of these tracks on BD Live, but we did not get anything unfortunately.

Maybe I am expecting too much too soon, but this Blu Ray was sold with the promise of this
"Includes exclusive BD Live bonus feature. Video footage from the forthcoming 2010 US and European Tour will be continually updated to your player via the BD Live feature on the disc"
The u2.com shop stillhas this description for the Blu Ray
