How to get rid of U2 album that iTunes gave you for free!

Hello bbast,

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

U2 and Apple gave away the album for free on iTunes, and if you had automatic downloads enabled on your device, it downloaded on its own. If you are seeing the cloud icon next to your music, it indicates the songs are not being stored on your device, but are available to download as part of iTunes in the Cloud. To hide the items that are not on your iPod, please follow the steps in the article below to disable the "Show all music" option.

• Just show music that’s been downloaded from iCloud. Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.
• Remove iPod touch from your list of “iTunes in the Cloud” devices. In iTunes on your computer, choose Store > View Account. Sign in, then click Manage Devices in the “iTunes in the Cloud” section.
