cause that's not it. I read somewhere it was 35% streaming and at first I didn't believe it..then Gangnam Style jumped up the charts like crazy when it first entered the top 10. By the old formula, would have been 11~12 or maybe even 10, but not jump from 11 to 2 with just primarily digital sales
The reason for this thread is that streaming can be swayed by any fan. Youtube videos can have increased views if you have a proxy randomizer...it's really not hard if you know what you're doing(and it's not that private either). The fact that any random fan can make a song jump up the charts when they aren't suppose to is what I'm saying. Though radio can be bought, it can't be dramatically increased like streaming can
