    What is there to change tho? BTS still selling singles and labels are making money

    Bundles were a clear bypass issue that had to be altered a bit but BTS fans are just buying the song. We gonna limit pure sale rules now?

    Because they do mass buying parties where 1 person raises money from international fans and buys 1,000+ copies.

    Obviously that is planned manipulation and should not be counted. One person buying hundreds of copies and international fans fundraising for a US chart (a country they don’t live in) is clear manipulation lmao.

    Man this is nuts I never heard about anything like this happening

  • people keep saying “it isn’t number 1” but it is. they are the most perfect example of #1 in a long time.

    if that doesn’t make sense to you, then you likely have been living under a misunderstanding what the charts are, and how they are played.

    if it bothers you that fans pool money together to buy albums, then again, you don’t have an understanding of how this s*** has worked for a long, long time.

    the game is the exact same, and it was played the same way, only in this case, the players are different.

    think of all the rule changes that have happened in the last 15 years

    if you think they were done “to keep up with the times” or “better represent”, you are mistaken.

    who pushed for these changes? why?

    if you’ve noticed, any time the game has been undercut in a way that it can be more directly influenced by actual fans, they’ve quickly cut loophole.

    do we not remember old town road and its effect?

    if you really cared about the charts and its ideal purpose, then ..you wouldn’t care about the charts.

    bts is the dye that shows you in no uncertain terms the pipe is broken and leaking, but again, it’s always been broken and leaking.

    At the end of the day tho they're still selling singles. You're listing very relevant sites to stream and buy music yeah but thats now where they're going.

    They buy it here: https://store.bts-butter.us/

    Like should they create a rule to discount or limit sales from artist shops? I don't really find fans teaming up to support their artists as that bad of a thing. If it ain't them its gonna be the labels

    You don’t think label representatives/pawns are planted amongst these “armies” to lead agendas and strengthen the hive mind appeal ?

    it's all just delusional twitter hype tbh

    if anyone goes and looks at the spotify monthly listeners for top artists none of these k-pop groups are even in the top 300, the highest is BTS at number 40 in the world but that's with all their fans faking their numbers every week
