Too early to say...

Please keep checking periodically the site and Zootopia. Once there are official dates you will find the information here...

Thank you Max for the fast reply.

I Will.

I hope someone at U2.com sees this article. Vinyl is not as popular as they seem to think it is!

I love vinyl releases and enjoy listening to vinyl. But it seems pretty clear to me that they simply need to do both a CD version and a vinyl version of gifts and let subscribers choose.

The recently announced gift is a bit of a let down for sure. Not sure how many fans are excited about dance remixes (and I own a lot U2 remixes because, well, U2...). Live show recordings or unreleased tracks are the jackpot for these kind of releases as far as I'm concerned. I thought the Joshua Tree singles release was great, and I would love entire live shows on vinyl/cd, too.

As others have pointed out, at the very least vinyl gifts should come with a lossless download. It's insane and inexplicable that they don't.

"From your mouth to God's ear", as the old expression goes. That's been my position from the first time I started talking about it here last summer.

I hope it happens this year; I agree that it is inexplicable if it doesn't.

A nice surprise to find.  The U2 3D Dance Remixes are available to download.  Check your account page.

...sigh...

I wish I could call it a surprise, but it isn't - crappy mp3s yet again... ?

If the mp3 downloads show up in our accounts, does that mean we will receive the vinyl discs in the mail?

Nope, this just means the downloads are available.  Still no word on delivery of the vinyl.  In the original announcement they said " More news on delivery schedules in the coming days."  That was almost 2 months ago.
