Inside sources have exclusively told us that as streaming & media continues to influence the charts to a greater degree, digital sales won't matter as much.

"Digital sales are simply not the majority anymore", said the insider, "With sites like Spotify taking over, it's easier to let people stream freely that leave them to regulate through individual purchases. It is a phase, just like albums".

While some are worried what will happen to the economy, others are worried what will happen to their favorite artists. "I don't know what Katy is going to do without digital sales", said one fan. Will she be able to sell without people being in the comfort of their homes? What about artists like LMFAO, Rihanna, & One Direction?

"We want to enter into a new age of music" said the insider. "An age where streaming becomes the standard of the music industry. Digital sales are holding back. I mean, asking people to spend $1.29 is simply too much!"

How will the digital sales be forced out of influence? It's simple, & it will be gradual. It will most likely take 5-10 years, & despite the success of the digital markets, our insider wants it taken down & will stop at nothing.

"ADELE is the only one I want to benefit. Despite the overall positive effects, we're doing this mainly for her to monopolize the market in her favor", the insider said.

Oh wait, we weren't supposed to put that in there. Oop.

But I mean everybody knew that single sales would become eventually more important than album sales. But now what?. Only Spotify?, Youtube? Are artists only gonna earn money from tours?
