radio should not be having that big of an influence on the chart, the change is good
I look forward to sales discussions in 2026 comparing numbers from different years while conveniently ignoring the rule change!
Fun fact dua lupa is the msot notoriious raido abuser . Once she lost the radio pull, u see who really cares

they change billboard rules so much at this point that metrics matter less and less comparatively year to year. Talking about how many sales an album had in 2016 is like saying a movie cost a nickel in 1910.
Simple Example..
Subscribed/Paid Streams
Before: 10,000 / 1,2500 = 8 Units
Now: 10,000 / 1,000 = 10 Units
Ad Supported
Before: 10,000 / 3,750 = 2.67 Units
Now: 10,000 / 2,500 = 4 Units

Yea you really cant compare albums under different rules. For a while Youtube didnt even count.
Great! More comparisons between eras with zero context provided incoming.
“New Taylor/Drake/Bunny album is bigger than any Michael Jackson album!”
