Thanks dragonhunter for the articles. Good move for big machine tbh. If streamIng will only count for the album tracks' hot 100 position next week I'd rather not have the album not available. Album sales >>>>>>>>
And it's kinda stupid not to count those streams the songs will generate when you purchased the album just because
it wasn't officially sent to streaming sites. I mean the aim is to measure the popularity so if it was streamed they should count it regardless
I have no doubt they did this because of Amazon's practice of deep discounts and have no issue with it. The problem is when they release it to amazon and they sell it below the billboard threshold so the sales won't count.
