Digital sales aren't 65% of the total points, but anyone who tells you a formula is just guessing.
From what I understand, the most accurate "formula" in terms of analyzing the weeks since the last changes were made involves calculating the points for sales, airplay, and streaming (divide sales by 1,000, airplay by 1,000,000, and streaming by 10,000), and doubling the airplay points.
In terms of Bieber's opening week, it wasn't even close with streaming included.
"Boyfriend"
521,000 sales
40 million AI
Streaming numbers not reported
512 + 80 = 582 points
"We Are Young"
363,000 sales
104 million AI
1.18M streams
363 + 208 + 118 = 689 points
