QUOTE(Steve201 @ Mar 22 2017, 01:18 PM)  How is streaming in 2017 not reflecting popularity? I would say ultimately the thing it's most reflective of is people on autopilot. |

This is the first time in history where basically everyone who is even vaguely interested in music is being heard in terms of charts

QUOTE(mr_pmt @ Mar 22 2017, 02:09 PM) I would say ultimately the thing it's most reflective of is people on autopilot. They are still listening to these songs though, even if it's passively. Maybe it would make chart fans happier if people had to pass some sort of music taste and appreciation test before their streams counted towards the chart... but that would make the chart a lot less accurate which defeats the purpose of the chart. |

The chart would be fine if they just found a way to distinguish whether people are listening to an album or a single etc.. and place it in the correct chart.

Agreed when an artist like Drake releases new albums they will always get people listening!

People vote on song they like
Reshuffle on this forum works very well as it pushes truly likeable songs on top and drags all the duds down Anyone can admit re-shuffle chart is much closer to his preferences than official chart People vote the song they like, people buy songs they have been advertised Buying the song is not everything, buying the song and liking it is something IMO chart should reflect what people like or buy and like, not just buy |

The chart is more accurate than ever at reflecting popularity, however - that is EXACTLY the problem. We want them to be less accurate and more varied.

Whether it's accurate is debatable, because arguably those streams which should only be counted in albums chart are also counted in the singles chart. And that's the problem. Variety factor is only minor to me. |

I personally don't like streaming being in the album chart anyway. I feel like it is just being artificially added to inflate sales of a format in terminal decline.

Really given on most platforms you can listen to 90 seconds of the song to gage weather or not you like it But if you're talking about fans of artists then unless they've done something which is. A huge departure they're going to like it anyway as they support that act This post has been edited by ElectroBoy: 23rd March 2017, 07:23 AM |

For Clean Bandit to be so high this early in its chart career - nearly top 5 without Drake/Ed album tracks - indicates Symphony will be HUGE.

Some big daily slumps for Drake yesterday. There's the hope we'll get a more or less normal chart next week.
