How do you then explain the rise for Taylor's streaming numbers in the last 3 years... she had 18 million youtube views with SIO, and now she's over 40 million with LWYMMD (I guess the number is close to actual). Are you saying the streaming didn't grow over 100% in the last 2 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But imagine the power of Harlem Shake and Gangnam Style or even Friday if they blew up now. If Friday had debuted at #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know or care what Hello's streams would be today but we know for a fact it would be hugely more than two years ago. No formula needed. You came into this thread downplaying Taylor's streaming numbers, you have been downplaying streaming as a format in other threads related to LWYMMD's numbers saying that it is easily manipulated and shouldn't be used as a measure of success, and yet now you're saying the exact opposite when it benefits Adele. You aren't even trying at this point, your trolling is getting worse and worse. Just say you hate Taylor and move on Edited September 6, 2017 by Headlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows Exactly, nobody knows, as nobody knows what would've been LWYMMD sales numbers in 2014, or 2012 (somebody did the "math" and came up with 900k in one of the earlier comments). That was my whole point, you can't adjust sales while not doing the same with streaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You aren't even trying at this point, your trolling is getting worse and worse. Just say you hate Taylor and move on Oh here comes the trolling accusation. So predictable. Anyways Im done. Just got the obligatory warning point that comes with any anti Taylor posts these days so Ill leave you to your obsession with replying to every single post about Taylor...and then calling the poster a troll cause they actually reply to you. and trust I will never reply to you again. Some people are just not worth the effort. If I can find a block feature you can be the first on it. Feel honoured.

It is 0.916 times platinum with this first week as platinum is 1m sales or 150m streams or any combination of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is 0.916 times platinum with this first week as platinum is 1m sales or 150m streams or any combination of that. I wasn't talking about that, iHype was adjusting LWYMMD sales to 2012 and came up with 900k in sales, not SPS. He said: Quote The point of adjusting is simply to compare how IMPRESSIVE doing a certain number today is compared to another era. It is delusional and literally ignoring the entire market trend if you say things like "if people want to buy music they'll just buy it". Which is why adjusting LWYMMD's total to a 2012 market and getting a 900K~ like number shows that doing 353K in 2017 is much more impressive and bigger for its time than say 420K in 2012, or 520K, or even WANEGBT's 620K first week. Which is why adjusting is perfectly fine and a great method of measuring how successful something truly is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
