June 28, 20178 yr Look at its position on the iTunes chart. So this rule is only about declining in actual sales for 3 weeks and not the combined 'sales'?
June 28, 20178 yr So this rule is only about declining in actual sales for 3 weeks and not the combined 'sales'? That is how I interpreted the official statement. Looks like they are trying to keep download/physical sales as the key focus of the chart.
June 29, 20178 yr So this rule is only about declining in actual sales for 3 weeks and not the combined 'sales'? That would be a very silly rule then, as we all know download sales of songs tend to be front loaded for new songs and many songs may have their first 3 weeks decrease in sales. It surely means combined sales as streaming is slower to take off and offsets the rapid decrease of download sales.

June 29, 20178 yr I don't know why you guys think they're talking about paid for sales. Why would they do that? It's clearly combined sales they're talking about. Edited June 29, 20178 yr by AcerBen

June 29, 20178 yr Yeah I imagine it must be "Chart sales" as they like to call it. If they're bringing this rule to the "Official" Chart, that is the combined one they broadcast on radio 1, then surely the term "sale" refers to a combined unit.
June 29, 20178 yr MW have new midweeks :w00t: Despacito (66,092 sales) is at No.1 ahead of Bridge Over Troubled Water, the Grenfell Tower charity single (58,402 sales). Ed Sheeran’s ÷ (24,531 sales) in at No.1 ahead of Radiohead’s reissued OK Computer (23,729 sales). #21 Smile for Bradley #25 Signs Edited June 29, 20178 yr by Jason

Either way, it's good to see them arrive, eventually! It could be the mids for Thursday though... Edited June 29, 20178 yr by Robbie
June 29, 20178 yr So many new albums and Divide goes back to #1. Hope Calvin can dethrone Ed next week instead of being 2014 all over again

June 29, 20178 yr I was expecting "Feels" to climb. Oh well, it should climb next week when Calvin's album is released and I hope SOY doesn't push YS out of the top 10 Edited June 29, 20178 yr by Hadji
June 29, 20178 yr I wonder if this could be the midweeks for yesterday (Wednesday) as Music Week have posted Either way, it's good to see them arrive, eventually! It could be the mids for Thursday though... I did wonder if these were for yesterday at first, an issue with OCC sounds intriguing :mellow:
June 29, 20178 yr I wonder if Artists For Grenfell are safe at number 2. DJ Khaled feat. Rihanna & Bryson Tiller could overtake them with their big streaming advantage. :P
June 29, 20178 yr is Rita safe at #10 or could Ed overtake? Rita is miles away on iTunes and they seem kinda tied on Spotify when you combine both versions of Shape
June 29, 20178 yr is Rita safe at #10 or could Ed overtake? Rita is miles away on iTunes and they seem kinda tied on Spotify when you combine both versions of Shape We don't have sales info I'm afraid! She looked fine for #10 on Tuesday though.
