She's not a powerful streaming artist either, so it cannot be the reason.

One word in your post says it all. Global.
At this point having a multiplatinum song is a good thing for her. Work btch is around 1M...if she can score a few more singles that are multiplatinum then I'd be fine with that

Physical sales were not popular in 2004 
To the OP: Stop being an obsessive asshat and get a life.

What is Xtina's 4M selling single? Moves Like Jagger, Feel This Moment, Say Something?

Oh! So even Applause, which peaked at #4 and was a big underperformance, outsold it? Hm, it sounds to me as though Britney doesn't have any digital power.

I mean, she has a couple of 3 million-selling song that are close to getting 4,000,000, so don't worry.

Evidence to the contrary???
It's impressive that she has strong global sales and single sales despite not releasing singles to half of them

Beyonce and P!nk sells albums as well and they still have 4m+ selling singles, i'm afraid that excuse won't work.
Anyway all of their 5m+ singles were in the digital age.  |
Artist - Albums Sold - Singles Sold
Britney Spears - 84,000,000 - 110,000,000
P!nk - 46,000,000 - 83,150,000
Beyonce - 31,100,000 - 125,000,000
Christina - 38,850,000 - 80,000,000
Britney's actually sold more singles than Bey, but Bey gave away her singles for free for years in South Korea till they revamped their charts.
Who really wins?

Considering how low their catalog sales are, they're anything but "close to getting 4M."

Well considering none of them are charting in the iTunes 1500. I don't think they'll reach that number anytime soon.

Scream and Shout out-sold every Gaga single since early 2011 so if Britney doesn't have any digital power, Gaga doesn't anymore either

Because she doesn't?
Your obsession is very cringe worthy.

Why are you using album sales from the early 00s where ppl actually bought albums? Do you think BOMT would've sold 4m back then? No.
She doesn't have a 4m single sales in the digital age which prove she doesn't have digital power.
