HITS DAILY DOUBLE: NEW RELEASES CHART PREVIEW HDD (November 26th, 2014)
* Digital-only bonus EP. The full Platinum Edition and all physical versions will merge with the original 2013 release. ** Iggy’s prior release, The New Classic, is featured in several Black Friday promotions. It may sell a similar number to the new album, Reclassified. Certain track sales will be assigned to whichever release charts higher. |

Well, Well, Well ... SPEECHLESS comes to mind Those Iggy numbers are hilarious, and the fact they haven't decided which album to assign the track sales too is just ... -------------------------------- In case anyone missed the announcement, this will be the first chart to reflect the new Billboard 200 methodology of including:

One thing HDD hasn't clarified, is whether the sales figure are pure traditional sales or if they include Track Equivalent Albums (TEA), ie, "10 digital track sales = 1 album sale". For 15k of Stream Equivalent Albums (SEA), ie, "1,500 song streams = 1 album sale", Eminem would need 22,500,000 streams. I suppose that is possible when you've got 28 tracks on the album, which implies the sales figure may not be a true sales figure. Billboard's write-up next week sure will be interesting. |

I'm impressed the Beyoncé album is actually selling that much considering it's bombing in the UK.

Do you know what would be a result for Taylor's first week if Billboard was using this method?

Would Taylor's sales then count towards both the Hot 100 and the Albums chart? |

Seriously? God this new system is an utter mess! In theory, the new Billboard 200 should give us an idea of how money an artist has made from sales/streaming in a week, because you're adding all the sales they've made from songs sold and streamed related to that album. It won't because streaming revenues are so low and artists don't make the same percentage off individual track downloads as they do albums sold. But it will give us an idea - that's how I'm looking at this new chart |
