Any chance the tread title could be amended as it doesn't make sense????

 

The word poised is completely out of context - maybe "Poised For Physical Free Official Top 10 This Sunday??"

 

This might be me being a failed vocabulary Nazi here but that doesn't sound right to me either - I would word it as 'Top 10 poised to be physical free this Sunday'.

 

Or maybe it'd be better to completely remove the word 'poised' and replace it with 'due' or some other word to that effect.

How about "First ever official UK Top 10 without physical sales contributing"?

 

Yes, I like this. ** edits ** :lol:

Ah, that sounds good :D

Well, I would edit the title but "First ever official UK Top 10 without physical sales contributing" won't fit into the title (it's too long :drama: )

 

I could just cut the title into two sections:

 

Title: First ever official UK Top 10

 

Subtitle: Without physical sales contributing

Or cut it down to 'First ever top 10 of D/L-only songs'?

 

(I love how this debate is completely pointless)

This shows that physicals are more or less a dead format.

 

The HMV in Birmingham City Centre has physicals which are off the X-Factor related acts, the charity single, the awful Haiti one, Peter Kay and Su-Bo plus some obscure ones which no-one bought.

 

Downloads is the future and to be honest, I think you get a better deal with download singles.

I'd go as far as saying "Downloads was the future" and that future has now arrived.

 

Oh, and yes Bray :lol: Completely pointless but everyone loves a pointless debate. :D

And being old-fashioned when it comes to grammar, I will now complain about the split infinitive :angry:

Split infinitive is one thing I simply don't understand how to recognise. They don't bother teaching it in English though, so I'm going to blame the education system.

History has been made, Price Tag is this week's highest placed physical at #12!

So we can change the thread title to "First Physical-free Top 10!" ??? :)
