Physical sales shouldnāt count toward Billboard nowadays. People donāt listen on CDs or vinyl. They listen through streaming
They should always count because they will always matter more than streams
Itās the same dude always trying to turn this thread into the sales thread because heās lonely in that new sales thread
Keep in mind, this was a response to a one-off comment I made days ago
Not my fault you niggas get offended

LMAO
ULTIMATE COPE š
Anyways thereās 0% chance ICEMAN has vinyls pressed and ready for the first week. This guy canāt even get albums finished on time to release at midnight. He damn sure aināt sending it off a month early to run physicals.
Thatās true, but 25K in CDs for an artist of Drakeās stature is pathetic. The vinyl didnāt sell any better (9K)
That was first week vinyls continue to be bought over time. 3 months later. With a collab album.

Not sure what youāre trying to say here.
The 25K first week number was digital downloads and CDs
The 9K number three months later was vinyl (bought over the course of three months)
Artists make literal less than pennies per stream
By that logic we should care more about tour sales than album sales
dont really like this energy of not believing in papi itt
Papi is ghosting us since september

No they donāt. What matters is people actually listening and a infinitesimally small number of people physically listen to cds or vinyls on a daily basis, the fact that someone can listen to your album front to back 5 times and itās not a sale or they spend 40 dollars at target and literally never listen to your album and it is a sale is ridiculous

Correct, support the artists you like by doing more than just streaming

No one is offended at you constantly getting dunked on for acting like you understand sales
. You just look goofy every time

Support a billionaire

Someone can listen to your album front to back five times and youāll make $3, thatās why sales will always matter more

Front to back 5 times I think is almost a nickel.

Thatās because of how the steaming industry is priced and its model. Not because buying an album is inherently more valuable than listening to it digitally. Youāre making music so people can listen to it. If people arenāt listening to it youāre doing something wrong
