If it was just about making the money they wouldn’t have reworked 40 songs. It would be foolish to suggest money was anywhere near the top priority for any of the band when doing these reworks. Obviously management and the record label are going to prioritise making as much money as possible when they’ve got ‘new’ material to sell so that’s where the multiple versions come into it. U2 aren’t the only band doing it, artists st the start and middle of their career are doing it as well, big and small. You can like or dislike the album but it can’t be passed off as a money making project, not when there’s no sensible evidence to suggest that’s the case. Surely people are intelligent enough to realise that.
100% agree.
