"The Letter U and the Numeral 2" is a 96-page magazine and 25-minute CD by Negativland detailing their conflict with the band U2. It was released in 1992 as a limited edition of 4000 copies. Two months after its release, SST Records blocked its distribution with a lawsuit claiming, among other things, copyright infringement based on reproductions of press releases sent to the press by SST; "in essence, suing the band for printing (their) threat to sue the band".Fact|date=February 2008

Three years later, Negativland re-released this as "". It included "Crosley Bendix Discusses the U.S. Copyright Act" plus nine other tracks.
