You're saying this, Billboard are saying it's about revenue. You literally just said it's up to Billboard to decide, and they have, and I agree. Free Steams are not Paid Streams and shouldn't be reflected as such. Edited October 20, 2017 by gloamingtheplain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except songs still count equally no matter the price. This is Billboard having to give in to the delusions of a emotionally-wrecked industry unable to realize its future. Youtube will eventually become a huge force within both the singles and albums charts. Delaying it just makes the industry look silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m talking about digital tracks. It’s anti-streaming posturing to claim this is about revenue when no changes are being made to digital tracks.

I’ll wait until they lower the weight of discounted songs and eliminate radio from their formula before agreeing with that conclusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fridayteenage Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 what are they gonna do about the 2nd half of the stuff they list though? (iv) how to address the increase in, and uniqueness of, sales of music through direct-to-consumer offers, (v) whether to modify what’s allowable for concert ticket/album bundle sale redemption offers, and (vi) how to address the rise of promotions that incentivize consumer streaming.

PopNStuff Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Billboard is trying to save face after their messiness. This is how it should have always been. If it's a paid subscription it should have more weight. Also, they need to address Tidal's shadiness and corrupt numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
