McGuinness said the band would consider using "whatever technology is available", but claimed that Radiohead's decision to allow fans to pay what they want was not the way forward.
"We should all be aware that Radiohead's honesty box release of their album to some extent backfired," he told BBC 6 Music.
"Even though it was available on their own website for no money at all, if that was what you preferred to pay - 60 to 70% of the people who downloaded the record stole it anyway, even though it was available for free."
Speaking about U2's new LP, he said: "There will be events around the release of the album but for U2 physical sales are still an enormous part of our business and we still sell a lot of actual CDs.
"We will obviously work with whatever technology is available to make the release of the new record as interesting as possible."
U2's 12th studio album is expected to be released in October.
