How can I see the popularity bars in iTunes 9 & 10?

Use this link: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore...aultSeeAllSongs

Then select 'View' and tick 'popularity', alternatively, in the headings bar (Artist, Album, Time, etc), right click and select 'popularity'

Remarkable that Wake Me Up has risen up to #5 on almost zero airplay. Hopefully streaming will bolster its Hot 100 position.

I'm still amazed at how well Labrinth is holding up... nice to see Passenger slowly climbing as well.

:up: 20. Royals - Lorde

:up: 74. Sweater Weather - The Neighbourhood

Blurred Lines seems to have been removed again (I say again because it happened very briefly a few days ago too iirc). Should pop back soon anyway but Miley is up to #1 by default.

The last time it was deleted was when the single version was at #1 and the album version at #3, and they deleted the single version. But this time all versions are deleted. Why is it gone for so long? :( This is all extremely suspicious imo.

54. Blurred Lines (Single Version) - Act

Lol.

Don't start with the conspiracies PLEASE Eric :drama:

It has nothing to do with Katy/Gaga i'm sure (if that's what you're going for) - although i must admit it's very strange...

The theories have already started on the net. Some are saying it's to help Gaga (like the Flo Rida/Ke$ha saga) and some think their going to add it back on the 12th to block Katy. :rofl:

Definitely some kind of iTunes error.

- It has been removed from the album.

- You can't buy the album, only individual tracks

The record company wouldn't sabotage themselves like that as this is the first week of release for the album in the US.

Update

Spoke too soon ...

Blurred Lines is back at #1 - album only though :lol:

It's been re-added, no longer album only.

Maybe when they saw how well the fake version was doing, they figured there was no point :lol:

Oh seems like ' Blurred Lines ' is actually dropping on iTunes now anyway!

01. Robin Thickle Feat Pharrell - Blurred Lines 100%

02. Miley Cyrus - We Can't Stop 79.9%

I assume that's because it hasn't been available to buy for the last few hours. Now it's available to download again, I expect it will start increasing its lead over Miley again.

Judging by the earlier posts, it was unavailable for around 12 hours, enabling a fake version to climb as high as #25.

I still think it was an error, because you couldn't buy his album either, only individual tracks.

Whatever they were trying to do, it went wrong :lol:
