Yes. They're a joke now. I would've accepted it if Ariana had sold over 600k at least, but she won't ever come close to that mark,

Ariana got a Platinum because her label shipped a million copies, even though most remain unsold, they then applied to RIAA for a certification.
My god... So embarrassing. This is not a Platinum certification this should be named Aluminum certification... for cheap. Like byeee

Lets remember they count shipments. Whatever amount of free copies that were given away with Google Play will be counted!
