If candles goes top 10 J.Lo will drop out which will make it easier for LAMN to pass it.

I find it extremely disgusting that Glee can have that many songs in the Top 10. Its not fair that Artists with supported music videos, and radio airplay, can overshadowed by Glee songs, and may fail to go #1 or a high chart peak because of Glee's huge sales.

They should let Glee songs be for sale, but not show chart positions, like American Idol studio versions, or have a separate chart for Glee.

J. Lo will be #5 this week, so next week she's going to probably take a bit of a harsh fall.

[Mel.]

I agree with GLEE needed a separate iTunes chart.

[TakeItOff!]

Glee should stay right where it is, ******** on everyone. Putting them in their own separate chart is such a cop out. They're their own artist.

I can probably help you guys with the readItunesPopbars file when I get back in about an hour. What I said isn't the ideal way to deal with it.

Guys, first of all download Java SDK (the ~76mb one), and follow these steps:

1. Install it
2. Right click on My Computer, Properties, Change Settings.
3. Go to Advanced tab and then Environment Variables.
4. Under System Variables, create these two variables:

Name: PATH
Value: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\bin; (this is where Java SDK has been installed)

Name: CLASSPATH
Value: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\lib; (same as above)

5. Hit OK, OK, and you're done.

Now you've got to change something in Kworb's java code.
6. Open it using Wordpad (If you use Notepad it won't work I don't know why)
7. Delete the line package mbstuff;
8. Save.

9. Now copy Kworb's java file to C:\ (Important: do not change the filename, keep it as readItunesPopbars.java)

10. Hit WindowsKey+R on your keyboard, and type cmd. Ok.
11. Now type cd \ and press Enter.
12. Type now javac readItunesPopbars.java (do not forget the .java suffix!) (if you get any kind of error, then youve done something wrong) and hit enter.
13. Now type in java readItunesPopbars>output.txt (no extension this time)

If you did it all right, go to C:\ and there you have a file called output.txt. Now just copy it and you can post here on ATRL.

PS¹: you can change the 'output.txt' on step 13 to whatever you want, 'results.txt', 'itunespopbars.txt', it doesn't really matter.
PS²: I've edited the code, so, you can import it directly into Excel as a Web Table, but I'm not sure if Kworb is okay with sharing it.
PS³: On Step 2, you have to click Change Settings if you are on Windows Seven and Vista. (like me) If you have got XP, just do Right Click on My Computer - Properties - Advanced tab.

Sorry it took me so long to write this, hm, 'tutorial', but I had to find the translation of some Windows tools, etc. And my English isn't that good, so, sorry for any mistakes I may have made.

LAMN still holding strong at #11
Once Glee falls it should really have it's time to shine in the top 5. I hope it passes Jlo to make it even easier

The iTunes chart represents what the most popular songs are.

Whether they're originals or covers shouldn't matter.

They are the songs that people are buying the most, period.

Once you start putting rules and restrictions, it will get messy and unclear as to what should and shouldn't chart. So make it easy and let everything chart.

Thanks so much . And also thanks to Kworb for sharing the code!

No need to separate. They are no different than any other artists

Well, you have got to do the Environment Variables step yourself.
But after getting that done, you might create a .bat file, so that you can simply double-click it and voilá, you have the output.txt file in seconds.
