There is nothing except benefits with the iTunes countdown. Let's be perfectly honest...the people who are going to be buying these singles are going to be the dedicated fans who want the music early and are most likely going to be buying the album anyway.

I'm not expecting it to hurt album sales, I just don't want it to screw up Judas's momentum if people are going to jump on any new material of hers.
If there was some way to prevent radio from touching any of the promotional singles, and if they made them only available for sale for a week (until the album drops, of course) then I could see that working.
How have the countdowns worked in the past? Are the promotional singles only available for a specific amount of time or are they out there for good?
