So if I pre-order the track now, it'll help it increase up the chart even though I'm not actually buying. But what if no one actually purchases it when it comes to Friday, won't it just disappear? It just seems so flawed.
How do these pre-order songs work? When the song is officially released, all those pre-orders will help it chart high quickly?
I believe the pre-orders already count as a sale, so they won't show upon official release. Everything after availability will be like a normal release, it'll rise based on who's buying at that point.
