Hmmm... I wonder why it didn't work for you, I also downloaded the U2 Album fairly soon after the streaming event. I know I didn't have any problem even though I was half asleep by then as I had been up at my normal start time 5AM & worked all day through to the 3am live streaming event :-)
Ah well at least you got it downloaded. Boy what a huge cost it was to Apple, U2 did extremely well... the Apple shareholders are Not Happy!
