You mean a song sold more 15 years ago? When people still bought music?? NO WAY!!!!!!!!!

People are pressedttttt and 5H keep winning.

People are still discrediting streaming in 2016?

The biggest girl group in the world Can't think of another girl group this decade with such massive global hits, especially outside of their home territory. Not everybody has that.

Also nobody has heard of jpop groups outside of Japan, they're not a thing.

Actually yes sweetie, I do. According to Spotify, 1 stream is equal earns the artist $0.0013, and Billboard counts 1300 streams as one pure sale, which is $1.69, which actually makes the artist MORE money than a pure sale, which is $1.29 . Guess I'm happy my faves 5H are streaming forces and make more money in that domain than other artists make in pure sales. Also, it's a guaranteed revenue because you don't discount Spotify streams like you discount pure sales.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on that, sweetie.

MOVED

You sell pure units.
You move equivalents.

Quit trying to purposefully mislead people

The attempts at AKB48 shade when their singles bring in $20M+ from physical sales and over $3.5M from digital sales every release. Each of their singles outgrosses 5H's musical career
Isn't it 1,500?

And there's no need to discredit SEAs. However, you have to label them correctly or else you look shady af trying to pass them off as pure sales.

And their album sold around... 50k i think

Slay though

Why do people always argue over the stupidest things?

OT: Congrats to 5H

This was a post about people complaining about streaming in general. Please refrain from expressing your anger about other's success in every 5H thread. You can leave now, because this is a thread to congratulate 5H for this achievement that many can't and won't ever achieve.

OT: So proud of them for this This song was a monster

omg, Atomic Kitten
