well, technically speaking, presumably many more people streamed than bought it, just b/c of how the chart formula works.

 

drugs you should try it, for examples, got over 4 million streams on US Spotify. this only counts as a few thousand equivalents, but a fair number of people did stream it.

None, just Renan prematurely posting a thread, which immediately got deleted.

Who is he? Could you point me to his site, please?

His label reported ~300K of exclusive digital version on his website for now. Billboard has to look at it wisely

I am reporting that Radical Optimism did 400K this week :gaycat2:

I wonder how Billboard / Nielsen even manage to track the data of those website sales properly

It's a good question

so on Friday they said "no numbers today."

didn't realize that meant none on Saturday, and none on Sunday. :gaycat6:

is this the first time HHD delays the update for this long? even during the queen vs astroworld week they posted the numbers on friday. It's clear that the labels are fighting behind the scenes and i guess they want to stay out of it till they settle it with billboard..

They said numbers should be around 9 a.m. ET.. At 8.30 they change the message to 'data will be delayed' lol

If he's doing all this for days before rodeo, I wonder if he'll release a bunch of deluxe versions next year for the 10 year anniversary of Rodeo...

BS like this is why I don't get excited for the US chart reveals anymore. By the time the charts are out, it feels like old news as half or even more of the following tracking week is already done and the charts of other countries have been revealed days earlier.

 

I wouldn't mind if the tracking week is moved to Monday-Sunday, if it means a universal chart reveal day Monday. There's no reason why the US charts should be revealed days after the rest of the world.

US charts are posted on Mondays and other countries post it on Friday because... Billboard uses full week data. UK OCC for example publishes their charts with Thursday data missing for streaming, sometimes even for Wednesday. You can complete full charts on Saturday evening earliest since YouTube takes 2 days to generate their daily reports. And since charting week is from Friday-Thursday, Monday is the first day when you can publish charts. There's a question if the global release day should be moved from Friday but this is another story.

I have always thought the UK/OCC way is better. Charts should be revealed as close to the tracking period end. Putting estimates for Thursday and even Wednesday would make it harder to game the charts. Plus, random increases on Wednesday and Thursday is a sign of fraud.

 

Pretty funny how the delays in chart reveals started when streaming/sales tracking period was moved to Friday-Thursday and only increased when radio went the same way.

 

Pre-July 2015, when the tracking period was Wednesday-Tuesday, the charts were revealed the day after the tracking period ended (Wednesday) with no fail.

Basically there's no way to manipulate streaming data nowdays*. You can report fraud digital or physical sales but streaming services have many ways to spot fraud streams. 

 

Spoiler

* We don't talk about TIDAL but since they changed owner they much more transparent.
