I personally enjoy both bands and have Floyd on as many media types as U2. Now granted I did have PF on 8-track (gave them away along time ago) and never had any U2 on 8-track.

On a side note, I can remember a used record store at college back in '87 that had 8-tracks, records or all sizes, cassettes, and CD's. It was tough finding what you wanted on a media you could play.
You know what, just don't start that, especially when it's bullshit. Green Day most certainly does have the catalogue and the fan base to support an SE iPod. They play to 60,000 seat stadiums now, so please speak only when you know what you're talking about. They're 2 time grammy winners and have 8 studio albums to their credit. They could easily pull off an SE iPod...and it would sell better than the U2 iPod...why? The Green Day fan base is comprised of younger people with disposable income or parents who will buy for their kids.

Green Day is the biggest band in the world right now.
