Songs of Innocence automatically appear on customers'
iTunes accounts. In a Facebook video session responding to fan questions, Bono apologized for the promotion.</p> <!--break--> <p>Here's what Bono had to say:</p>
<p>We had this beautiful idea, we got a carried away with ourselves, artists are prone to that kind of thing. Drop of megalomania, touch of generosity, dash of self-promotion, and deep fear that these songs that we poured our life into over the last few years mightn't be here. There's a lot of noise out there; I guess we got a little noisy ourselves to get through it.</p>
<p>The album has been downloaded
over 26 million times so far, but if you're unhappy with the promo there is a
removal tool that will allow you to vanquish
Songs of Innocence from appearing in your iTunes purchases.</p> <p>Source:
