July 14, 20195 yr So pleased to see ‘You Are The Reason’ go gold for Calum & Leona - it deserved so much more than it’s #43 peak!
July 28, 20195 yr What streaming ratio does BPI use for their singles certifications? I would imagine the same one as the OCC does for consistency
July 28, 20195 yr What streaming ratio does BPI use for their singles certifications? 100:1 for premium streams and 600:1 for ad-funded streams.
July 28, 20195 yr I would imagine the same one as the OCC does for consistency OCC and the word consistency shouldn't be in the same sentence
July 28, 20195 yr 100:1 for premium streams and 600:1 for ad-funded streams. Are sales totals given prior to the introduction of these streaming/sales ratios recalculated using this formula? Edited July 28, 20195 yr by reissus123
July 28, 20195 yr Are sales totals given prior to the introduction of these streaming/sales ratios recalculated using this formula? Nope, they're all using the 100:1 ratio!
July 28, 20195 yr Nope, they're all using the 100:1 ratio! So up to now, the OCC has used 5 different streaming-sales ratios in their calculations?!!
July 28, 20195 yr So up to now, the OCC has used 5 different streaming-sales ratios in their calculations?!! Technically 6 accounting for ACR lol (100:1, 150:1, 200:1, 300:1, 600:1 and 1200:1)
July 29, 20195 yr So all these re-calculations will affect all-time sales. :wub: You can't really add physical sales to streaming sales? The history books need re-written. Edited July 29, 20195 yr by ben08

July 31, 20195 yr Author anyone knows how close to becoming GOLD is Westlife's My Love? A matter of weeks I'd say.
July 31, 20195 yr Africa never made it into the millionaires list of September 2017 - has it exploded since then or was it erroneously left out?
July 31, 20195 yr Author It's huge on streaming - recently it's been shifting as much as 7k a week! It was around 900k at the time of the millionaires list.
August 1, 20195 yr A matter of weeks I'd say. do you have a view in the remaining sales/streaming and its current performance, or just a prediction? :D
August 2, 20195 yr Yet another BPI award today. Beatles - Let It Be - Apple Corps - Gold - Single - 02.08.2019 - 16.11.2010 So in just over 2 years Let it be has added on an extra 200,000 downloads and streams. Just wait another 20 years and every Beatles track could be certified. Total sales approaching 700,000. Hey Jude probably next for a further certification.
