ViviLittleM Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) Devastated. also pure sales still matter. one of our fav just sold more than 100k pure copies of a single in the US in a week in 2019. I’m mad we won’t have the possibility to predict weekly sales anymore Edited March 16, 2019 by ViviLittleM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 For the fomos saying itunes is irrelevant, we still need the sales to make predictions since they are still a Hot 100 metric, even for streaming acts like Ariana Grande sales still matter.

Starkboy Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 itunes is not very relevant compared to streaming but it's still important to know how a song is selling for hot100 predictions. I wish they gave us bars popularity at least (like we used to have) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
