Bill Werde questions RIAA and Katy Perry's US certifications
@bwerde: The @riaa updated gold/platinum certifications. @katyperry is 72x platinum. No shade to Katy. But 72 after 3 albums? Methodology seems off.

If he'd been so smart they wouldn't have fired him so he can stay seething on his tumbrl blog.

He only has positive things to say about Beyonce so I'm not surprised he said this about Katy...

Doesn't the RIAA methodology include streaming? Wasn't he in charge of Billboard when streaming was included in their charts? If so, why is he coming after their methodology?
