Billboard covered a story on this but accidentally deleted the article. I saved the pic.

IFPI, Billboard, Official Charts, literally the entire industry doesn't count VEVO views into album equivalents. If the whole entire industry doesn't... it's safe to say they don't count.

Death @ you trying to include VEVO views as sales equivalents though!

The purpose of sales equivalent is to measure how much would be the equivalent of a sale. 1,500 VEVO views do not pay anywhere near the revenue of 1 album sale, hence why they aren't included. You'd need to find a proper formula for VEVO to count as SEA, and it wouldn't be 1,500. You're using an incorrect number.

Death @ you actually being the one 'not testing your own formula' tho.

This whole part being wrong math.

I put the wrong year. 2005 was when HG smashed. The math is right (though I used just its U.S. numbers for the year).

Let's think about this: BOMT supposedly sold 7.5M WW in 1999. There were 438.8M singles sold that year globally. In 2012, there were 2,297M singles sold. That means it would have a "multiplier" of 5.2347...

If we multiplied its sales by that, then we can assume "...Baby One More Time" would have sold 39,260,483 in 2012 alone

You're literally just flipping the disparity.

Digital Track Sales (in millions)
2012: 1.336 billion (3.78x as big)
2005: 353 million

Hollaback Girl sold 1.2 million in 2005, adjusted to 2012 that would be 4.54 million, that's perfectly reasonable

Obviously this wouldn't work with physical CD singles when most big hits didn't even get a single release, making the physical singles market artificially low. Cute how you left that out, tho

...You do know digital track sales were 2,297M in 2012 according to IFPI, right?

"Hollaback Girl" would be over 15M single sales WW if we bothered to adjust all of its sales

If it doesn't work for singles, how does it magically work for albums? Because that benefits Lady Gaga? Aren't their fewer albums being released, especially fewer albums with significant sales? I mean, aren't catalog sales set to surpass new album sales for the first time ever?

I don't see you bothering to take in to account volume when "adjusting" album sales.

That's rich coming from a Fad stan seeing as most of your fanbase have been wearing 6 year old tour receipts as some sort of badge of honour for the last 20 pages of this thread.

Godga stans have a bunch of recent receipts to use. Like her two diamond certifications this year, indicating that her older material is still being bought and streamed. Like her Grammy win this year, her acclaimed Oscars performance, her Billboard Woman of the Year honor, her acclaimed potential Oscar nomination, etc.

Oh look here it is again. Maybe the Botney stans will notice it this time.

Yet they pale in comparison to Britney's achievements 7 years into her career.

The only receipts Britney fans can use are from 2 decades ago, unless they want to brag about a casino residency (which is doing horribly now).

It's not like she has any acclaim, side projects, world tours, awards or anything like that.

There's plenty of proof you don't need talent to get a hit hun. See: PSY, Britknee, etc.

Stop playing dumb.

I didn't. But a while ago I was going to start a business selling ANTI Azealia shirts.

There are more diamond certified albums in the U.S that's for sure.

Are you serious with this question?

Like is it not obvious

We're still in the early days of the era of streaming. It's has only been like 8 years of it. Compare that to like the 25 years of the era of albums. When the streaming era is all said and done, I bet Lad Fad her 'Diamond' certification will not look any more impressive to how Britney's albums look comparing to that time.

Which are?

Do they include Grammy's, acclaim, an iconic universally praised performance, etc

So starring in a cable TV series that have experienced a plummet in ratings since your fave joined is seen as some sort of achievement?

Add this to Deadney's receipts

Dollas n Diamonds

UIggy has a grammy?

and Katy doesn't?

Aden

I don't get the "Gaga stans are living in the past" argument when we are able to use things like Cheek to Cheek's sales outselling a lot of pop albums (including Brinny Jean hi hi) and how her albums are charting on iKoons.

Ok sis we'll see. Either way not that many songs are close to Diamond. Well a couple are. One of them is Just Dance.
