January 30, 201114 yr I remember when Orson got to #1 on 17k. :( One of the best #1s IMO ever only selling that much... :( I think sales have done well to recover to how many their on now but I think they'll soon reach a plateau. What was so frustrating is that Orson sold more the weeks either side when they were no.1 and its by no means the lowest selling no.1 in terms of total sales. Such a shame its tarred with this brush.
January 30, 201114 yr I remember when Orson got to #1 on 17k. :( Their sales that week of 17,694 wouldn't have even gotten them top 30 on the 2010 post-Xmas chart! :lol:
January 30, 201114 yr They'll never reach such a level ever again as getting music on demand without buying it is far, far easier these days - back then, if you wanted a track without buying it you had to manually try and record it off the radio, or wait for it to come on the radio. It was far simpler to just buy it. These days if you want to listen to something you just need a basic Google search, or Spotify/Youtube if you don't like illegal downloading.
