| The third fanclub only release in
U2's career came on the tail end of the third leg of the Vertigo
tour. It featured live songs from concerts in 2005 in
Chicago and Milan. The tracks from Chicago are also
available on the Vertigo 2005: Live in Chicago DVD release.
The Milan tracks are expected to be available on DVD on an
upcoming release. The 2 CD set was sent out as a gift for
renewing one's subscription for the 2006 year to the paid
portion of the website at U2.com.
The CDs were released in a cardboard gatefold
sleeve, with one CD on either side of the package. Also
included was an insert card, which thanks fans for resubscribing,
reiterates the copywrite notice and telling users that they will
be banned immediately with no refund if found copying or
downloading the tracks on the CD. One CD contains eight
live tracks from the 2005 Vertigo tour. The other CD
contains a combination of video, screensavers, and computer
backgrounds that are only accessible if you have subscribed to
u2.com and have a user name and password to unlock the CDROM.
The package containing U2.Communication began
shipping in December of 2005 to subscribers. If ordered
with the renewal discount for resubscribers it did not come with
the keychain which was the 2005 gift. If ordered for full
price, there have been reports that the 2005 keychain gift is
included.
