Screaming at how melodramatic they're being over such a small difference :deadbanana2: And for those who are saying "Well 30K is enough to debut in the Top 10 nowadays, it's a big difference", it's really not a big difference at all in the context of a 1M+ debut. If Billboard were to add the 30K to its original 1.26M figure, then reputation's debut figure would go up by 2.4%. HDD's really this up in arms about a ~2% margin of error?. That's the equivalent of HDD complaining that they reported an album as selling 50K but Billboard only reported it as 49K :skull:

honestly they are right.

 

1989 is 1.28

 

it's really a difference if reputation is 1.26 or 1.29

 

1.26 means she have four million sellers, it's of course amazing

 

but 1.29 shows that she is growing with every release selling more in every release

I demand a recount.

Billboard is under Putin's influence now, fake news.

HDD's numbers for 1989 were 1,316,427 (they overestimated it compared to Billboard)

 

So it's still not a growth according to HDD's data

Well they wanted it to pass 1989

 

HDD is usually a mess but in this case if they're right about Billboard and Taylor missing sales they should have been on it :angry:

It's not a matter of how little the 30k is compared to the total sales. This is Billboard. They should be right. Not 30k more. Not 30k less.

Billboard are right. They are the standard. HDD is not. HDD overestimated.

Sounds like most of y’all here. I’m

This is ridiculous.  I like HDD but sometimes they come across as outright childish.

 

I'm more concerned with Billboard's methodology shift which supposedly began this week, and how they will be weighting audio (premium/non-premium) and video streams in the coming year.  Getting those numbers right is far more important.

I'm so confused as to what are the official numbers :rip:

Can we call the good sis Jill Stein and get a recount going?

Taylor already won the electoral college and popular vote.

This is kinda like arguing about the size of the crowd at the inauguration.

This Nicki vs. Remy/Cardi vs. Azealia-like one-sided feud. :rip:

HDD can keep trying but they are not that girl, they’re a cute knockoff that can give us the sales estimates as they progress but at the end of the day if it’s not on Billboard it’s not legit. 

 

Billboard IS that girl and HDD looks pathetic as hell always whining about it

BB200 article is out.

the meltdown from HDD :toofunny3:

HDD isn't even using their own number for 1989 so why should Billboard consider HDD's number for reputation lol. Compare a HDD number vs. a HDD number and a SoundScan number vs. SoundScan number. They have different rules and methodologies so clearly the number would be different.

Billboard is shady. All the time they change their rules in order to benefit certain artists. Also thanks to HDD we get a lot of sales and receipts after their first week sales, so i support them.

30,000 copies is almost as much as some girls get in total first week, I don't blame Big Machine for fuming.

I remember there`s a thread on ATRL celebrate about Demi`s 5th week sales reach 10k, increase 2k from the previous 8k last week.

And now those same people said 30k is nothing.
