ikr? Nobody is forced to buy something just because it's discounted  MR being discounted for this long and still charting this high only means more and more people are liking it thanks to radio playing it.

How delusional you must be if you think discounts have no effect

We just had a great example with IDWLF. 

IDWLF didn't decrease only because it's back to full price, the movie hype is gone and that's the main reason. The song is still top 5 so why are you acting like it left the top 10? 

 

Nobody said discounts have no effect. I simply don't see the point in bringing up a discount every time someone mentions a certain song's current performance. I always see you doing exactly that posting "$" all the time. And what bothers me the most, people are actually comparing a discount in 2017 to a discount in 2010, 2011, 2012 & 2013. How can you possibly say a song being discounted in 2017 with 15+ other discounted songs in the top 100 is the same as a song being discounted in the previous years with that song being the only one discounted at that time in a much better sales climate? Don't you think all these other songs that are discounted should be much higher if discounts are THAT impactful? 

 

#6 Million Reasons

 

....

 

#16 Mercy

#24 I Got You

#35 All Time Low

etc

 

It's obvious Million Reasons is sticking with people thanks to radio playing it more. Sure the discount is helping but you simply cannot say it's the only reason the song is this high and that's exactly what you and some other members (who all happen to also be stans of a certain popstar) are doing.

How delusional one has to be to think the discount is the ONLY reason behind MR's success? It is one of the reasons, sure but as mentioned above it's not the only song with a discount. Wyd?

Being in top 10 and selling more copies with a discount > being out of top 20 and selling less copies with a discount.

 

MR's discount ain't going nowhere until it gets a decent sized airplay so seethe

 

Nobody said MR it's this high ONLY because of the discount tho.  It's higher than a certain song (YOU compare to, not me) because of that tho, and you can't deny it. 

I'm not sure about those discounts in 2010 and discounts in 2017 you're talking about. One thing is sure, you can't compare them because while discounts lasted 1 or 2 weeks back then, now they're up for months.

 

2    2    5    4    3    5    ZAYN & Taylor Swift - I Don't Wanna Live Forever    1[14]    65    75    144k    66k    -54%

That's a +50% decrease. And the movie hype is still there, look at the weekend boost the song just had. "still top5" it was literally #10 yesterday, and it's currently selling like 5k more than #10

 

Look, WDTA was top10 while it was discounted: http://kworb.net/pop/archive/20160927.html

barely top20 when the discount was gone: http://kworb.net/pop/archive/20160930.html

And it was higher than how MR is on radio. (It went from selling around 30k to 20k, that's almost a 50% decrease as well)

 

Mercy, All Time Low are discounted but they've been like that for months, they peaked months ago you can't expect them to stay top10  And they weren't performed at Super Bowl (which happened 20 days ago). 

 

Funny how you all like to compare the two songs (only when MR is higher) and when someone replies with the discount you go mad and write essays.

cute. But where did I exactly say it is the ONLY reason MR is selling?  

 

 

 

Yeah those songs listed have been around for MONTHS much longer than MR.

 

Million Reasons still Top 10 great. But let's not ignore the circumstances here.

Million Reasons is #6 because people are buying it more than the songs outside of the top 10. The end.

Hopefully MR pulls Bad Things and stays stable in top 10 once the discount is gone. But that will be possibly only if it keeps gaining on radio

I'm going to be polite and actually quote you.

 

Fifty Shades Darker decreased more than 50% in it's 2nd sweek so it's only natural for IDWLF, like any other soundtrack single, to be suffering from that. The song is showing great signs of stability and longevity on sales, streaming & radio.

 

You are lucky I don't have the time to quote every single post of yours mentioning MR's discount and believe me, a lot of them have nothing to do with someone else mentioning that other song. The point is you JUMP on every single member even slightly saying a positive thing about Gaga's current position on iTunes. And I don't really know why? Both of your faves (Bruno & The Weeknd) used discounts to reach #1 on the Hot 100 chart. So it cannot be that.

 

I dont really think you have a problem with Gaga using a discount. So what could it be? You are also being VERY sensitive when it comes to anyone saying something negative about Katy's single's performance. Hmmm I think it could be that! It seems you just cannot handle seeing all the lashings Katy and her fans are getting. You have that ATRL+ sign so you've been here for a while, right? Shouldn't you be familiar with stan world? 

 

Sorry if this was another "essay". This time I made paragraphs so it's easier for you to read.

Oh wow, I'm so lucky. Thanks for showing mercy, I was shaking! I'm losing sleep thinking about the lashings Katy is getting! Gaga is slaying omg!   I simply said the discount has its effect, which is a fact and if you don't want to accept it, your fault.

Imma stop this discussion cause I'm already bored, sorry.

A suggestion, next time you fume about my posts just put me into the ignore list.

Nobody is fuming  My faves are doing great, so there is no reason for me to fume  I simply decided to share my opinion, this is a forum we are supposed to do exactly that ;) 

 

Anyways, the discount is working for Gaga so let's hope her team keeps it til airplay is big enough!

Hihihihi, wish there was a way to block their music from TTH forever since it's the only thing that's inflating their post-Closer stats

 

Sylar always wins

 

 

Light green for Zaylor  

I'm guessing we're experiencing the peak of the whole EDM Closer-esque breakdown trend right now? So many similar songs by DJs are out now

I just hate that the Chainsmokers think they can release a new rehash every three weeks and still smash every time. I'm sick of it & they need a wake up call

But his main fav is Rihanna who hasn't discounted a song since 2010.
