Posted July 17, 200619 yr is she eligible for the chart next week!? both amazon and hmv say the single is out to buy on cd the 24th!? :huh:
July 17, 200619 yr is she eligible for the chart next week!? both amazon and hmv say the single is out to buy on cd the 24th!? :huh: Good question! The general view is that hmv and amazon is incorrect. The single's downloads are only eligible for the week prior to it's physical release...whenever that maybe.
July 17, 200619 yr I had just got a PM from Kelly regarding this :lol: it will be available as a download this week, but I think the dates are incorrect
July 18, 200619 yr Musicweek have now credited it so it's got to be out physically on the 24th July .... hasn't it?
July 18, 200619 yr Well, if MW have used it in their report, the record company must have informed the OCC that it would be out on the 24th :huh:
July 18, 200619 yr CD1 out 24th July http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProduct...1;-1&sku=534071 CD2 out 31st July http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProduct...1;-1&sku=496310 This is an interesting marketing tool or could simply be a mistake.
July 18, 200619 yr the label are losing out on too many chart ineligible sales, so have brought the 2 track forward a week. So this week it can chart on downloads, next week, with the 2 track and then the week after as a full release with both CD formats.
July 18, 200619 yr What about digital bundles that match CD2? Will they be eligible this week or do they have to wait until next week?
July 18, 200619 yr What about digital bundles that match CD2? Will they be eligible this week or do they have to wait until next week? hmmm... interesting question! It'll be another rule that the OCC will have to make on the spur of the moment... That said, digital bundles don't normally sell in any great amount anyway.
July 18, 200619 yr Author bloody hell what a mix up... :rolleyes: doubt it will have a chance at number 1 now grrr!! :angry:
July 18, 200619 yr Thats a mistake. Both CDs are out on the 24th! Which bit? Xtina's own website or HMV and Amazon? If both are out on the 24th then I guess all of them! :lol:
July 18, 200619 yr lol, well I got an email about the single and it said out next week, which surprised me as I didn't know it had been brought forward. They didn't mention CD2 out a week later - made it sound like both are out next week!
July 19, 200619 yr You know, this would all be much simpler if the damn OCC got rid of their crappy rules and let downloads count from the moment they went on sale! :rolleyes: Edited July 19, 200619 yr by Tyron1
July 19, 200619 yr You know, this would all be much simpler if the damn OCC got rid of their crappy rules and let downloads count from the moment they went on sale! :rolleyes: Not sure it's the OCC, they gotta make rules that make people happy. This rule is not to let retailers of the phsyical product miss out to much.
July 19, 200619 yr Still largely waiting for physical formats to be brought forward nearer to when tracks start being promoted... heard Kasabian's record company are trying this next week.
