Hector Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Talent won Interesting they did the ticket bundle thing too, but ATRL won't lynch them for that of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E•MO•TION Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 I was wondering HOW in the heck they did that. They fell off iTunes top spot SO stinking fast I think first day but a ticket bundle makes sense. Imo ticket bundles should be banned it's totally not fair.

Going from 1-43 to 1-97 was a HUGE change. There have been one or two albums that fell from the T 5 out of the BB 200, and even from #1 on Rock Albums to around #25. Remember, when Hello virtually doubled the Spotify daily record, it took many months before One Dance BARELY edged her out. Later in 2017, several songs moved well past 2.7 M, but that was nearly 2 years later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And consumption is indeed better than just raw sales. However, BB really should implement a 1k/wk raw sales minimum for albums to chart on the BB 200. That's a perfectly reasonable threshold requirement for chart placement. Since BB can only publicly release sales data rounded to the nearest thousand, 1k is the perfect minimum. That way BB wouldn't have to dance around saying "WAY under 1k" in raw sales when trying to explain an album's numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not because there are countless albums that don't have hits at all (or had hits but don't anymore— think catalog albums like Anti, 2014 Forest Hills Drive, and Dangerous Woman) that aren't selling 1k/week but are still being consumed. More Life has no hits at the moment and is not selling 1k/week. But it's getting 30 million streams every week. So it shouldn't chart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
