Absolutely they have huge vaults of unseen material as they've filmed every gig since Zoo TV, and a lot of that would be very good quality as they've basically been using a full film crew for every tour to use on their screens and for their own personal use so they can look back and review gigs,they should put up a few of the club gigs they did like the recent Apollo Theatre or the other promo tour warm up gigs they've done over the years.

This, this & this +1,000!
Why bother streaming material everybody's seen, or owns. Give us something new! There's so much great material locked away in a vault, never to be seen in most cases.
Doesn't have to be the best quality edit, it's for a stream, not a DVD release. Just employ some people to get it done. If they don't want to spend the cash without a return, charge non-members to stream it. May get a few more people signing up to U2.com too.
Me, my membership expired a couple of weeks ago. Absolutely no point in re-subscribing, as the uninspired choice of Sydney ZooTV for the stream has proven

I'm in the same boat re resubbing. I didn't resubscribe this year. There won't be any touring and don't get me started on the "gift".
I absolutely agree if they were to put another show up for stream instead of Zoo TV Sydney they could then charge non subscribers to view therefore giving resubscribing some feeling of exclusivity. If they put up Zoo TV Washington Or one of the Apollo gigs mentioned i would probably find myself resubbing.
I all seriousness tough, how many more subscribers would they get if they had more exclusive content? 2-3 shows available digitally a year? The extra subs would have to outweigh the cost surely??
I can't help but compare to The National's fan club cherry tree (same cost as U2.com). Their latest gift was a triple LP (yes 3 LP) of a 2019 live show, a beanie, sweatband and guitar picks. They also offer exclusive items in their store just for subscribers (vinyl, clothing, accessories).

As in, I don't know, extra content, different shots, the inclusion of Tryin' To Throw Your Arms, a non-cut outtro including Elvis... anything?
