you are clearly mad at that girl discounted song on top 2, mysoginist much? 

It's impressive because she never had a song peak that high, and is not that famous in comparison to others . why are you so pressed? You saying that it's ''not impressive'' is an opinion too sis

Imo, price has little to do with it. Discounts give front page promo, which is what I think drives majority of sales. As opposed to the price driving them, I don't think anyone is gagging over 60 cents. I think you should stop discrediting her being near the top of iTunes though, because regardless of price she's still there.

When I used to buy songs and albums on itunes, a discount would give me the final urge to download a song (or album) that I really wanted. I think discounts do make a big difference.

Just now, DangerousSwiftie said:

I know pricing has an effect, but putting a song on Hot Tracks has a decently big effect as well. It's a combination i guess.

True. I'm not sure which has a bigger effect. Being the first song on Hot Tracks definitely drives a big increase in sales. Hot Tracks is only bigger than discounts if songs are on the first page of hot tracks, otherwise it doesn't have as big of an effect.

If streams are free, then why does streaming generate the majority of revenue in the music industry and digital sales only a quarter? 

Time to move on from 2012.

Stay is #2 on iTunes? Damn, when did that happen?

 

Also, discounts definitely have a huge impact on sales. Most songs literally double in sales after a discount. Regardless, #2 on iTunes is impressive.

 

But the "streaming is free while $0.69 is still money" thing needs to stop. One $0.69 sale is worth just as much as one $1.29 sale to Billboard whereas one free stream is only worth 1/150 of a $1.29 sale to Billboard. Also, many people do pay for streaming.

don't be a spoilsport.

The song is a hit already

It's #3 in Australia, #8 in UK, #14 in US even before the MV premiered and discount.

 

The discount will help it rise a bit further.

 

 

I hope she doesn't peak at #2 

Stay at #2

I think them going live at the same time  on both coasts helped.
