Has to be a mistake because last time Soundscan was leaking weekly for Billboard 200 the album was averaging 10m streams per week. 10m * 50 weeks = 500m
I think they accidentally included his new albums streams too
Something else has to be at play, though— 500M + 177M is only 677M, and they have 2014FHD over 1.1B.
How is this calculated? Because DW has more than a billion streams just on Spotify and although Revival had more streams last year I'm sure it had more than 500M in 2016.

It's calculated by adding up all 2016 U.S. streams for an album from ODS services like Spotify, Apple Music, and Tidal.
To be fair, that number is essentially her first few weeks total. It was at 229 million as of May, so I presume Tidal just stopped reporting numbers.
Her on-demand streams slowed down really quickly. I remember she was at like 3M/week by the time we got to June (because we still had SoundScan leaks back then). I think the number is legit.

Oh ok, thank you! I hope she uploads it to Spotify soon, so it can join BEYONCÉ in the billion streams club! Tidal is such a flop.
