I realize many people feel the same way about DMB, just saying....I don't get "it" with U2...at all.

If you look at their run from Boy through Achtung Baby, it makes perfect sense why they are so big. That's 7 records that are at worst good, at best classic. And their live shows have always been great.
So that's 11 years of being awesome, which is more than enough to build tons of die-hards who will stick through the junk. And even if you think Zooropa and Pop are bad, All That You Can't... is a pretty fantastic record. I if you think the last 3 are bad, again, they've still got plenty of beloved albums/songs to keep people going back time and time again.
