Alright lol, didnt know that and i actually live in Germany. Dont know anyone who buys music, literally everyone i know uses spotify Which is why im surprised that its only #8.. Drake isnt as big here as in the US ofc but it still feels like it deserves a higher peak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because German chart was ranked based from revenue charts point. Germany still sells physical copies and contribute large chunk of revenue chart point compare to download & streaming.

Also, iTunes is a non-factor for digital sales, more people buy and stream from Amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
