Actually, Sales=Streaming>Airplay

I hope everyone is well. I will go with 12 weeks at Number One on the Hot 100 for "Uptown Funk," but even that is stretching it for me, as I feel like we never know when a surprise or sleeper smash shows up out of nowhere to take over Number One.
However, since Airplay is UF's "weakest" component, and the song is currently ranking in the Top Five AI and Billboard Airplay Impressions totals of all time, that tells you how huge of a hit "Uptown Funk" has become.
I feel like after 12 weeks UF will start sliding enough for another song to overtake it, and that song may still not be released yet. If UF is still going strong at 12 weeks, I will consider additional weeks on a literally daily basis.
I do think this song will pass 6 million downloads, and could eventually reach 7 million (much harder to do now than just three years ago). With all of its On Demand and Vevo streaming, UF should get certified for at least 8X Platinum, and 9X or maybe 10X should it reach 7 million downloads down the road.
Probably Trap Queen, Somebody and G.D.F.R. as well.
