September 26, 20213 yr Just noticed that this is at #74 in Amazon's Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl) chart. Essential Sugababes is at #87...
September 27, 20213 yr To be able to unpack a brand new Sugababes release is going to be so special! :wub: Up to #35 on Amazon's Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl) chart today.
September 27, 20213 yr To be able to unpack a brand new Sugababes release is going to be so special! :wub: Up to #35 on Amazon's Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl) chart today. I wonder what's making it climb? Is it just them processing their orders?
September 27, 20213 yr Author They’re not putting much promo into this. I wonder if it’s just because they see it as fan service? It should get a push tho I think
September 27, 20213 yr They’re not putting much promo into this. I wonder if it’s just because they see it as fan service? It should get a push tho I think Then again surely CD sales on amazon are extremely low.
September 27, 20213 yr Author Surely. I think CD sales in general are a bit pitiful but, the album sales chart has a low bar for entry as a result so we should be seeing a charting position with luck
September 27, 20213 yr Surely. I think CD sales in general are a bit pitiful but, the album sales chart has a low bar for entry as a result so we should be seeing a charting position with luck We'll all have to get streaming next week to add to it as much as possible!
September 28, 20213 yr Do you guys think the Amazon Exclusive tracks might be uploaded to streaming services?
September 28, 20213 yr Author I am assuming that if they’re uploaded anywhere it might be to Amazon Music. But I guess it depends on the text of the exclusivity deal they’ve done. I don’t think they’re likely to see the light of day on Spotify or Apple, as what would be the point in an exclusive format if you could get it on other channels, but I’m willing to be proven wrong here!
September 28, 20213 yr I don’t think they’re likely to see the light of day on Spotify or Apple, as what would be the point in an exclusive format if you could get it on other channels, but I’m willing to be proven wrong here! I could see them being added a few months / years down the line, but as you said, there'd be no point in doing this Amazon exclusive if they didn't at least get to have it exclusively for a bit.
September 28, 20213 yr I could see them being added a few months / years down the line, but as you said, there'd be no point in doing this Amazon exclusive if they didn't at least get to have it exclusively for a bit. I agree with this, maybe once the deal with Amazon expires, if that's a thing.
September 28, 20213 yr I could see them being added a few months / years down the line, but as you said, there'd be no point in doing this Amazon exclusive if they didn't at least get to have it exclusively for a bit. I hope so! London seem to be very focused on establishing their catalogue on digital platforms, so I'd like to think that they'd eventually make this material available (even if it is much further down the line). Another Amazon chart update - and I'm not even gonna apologise as it's been such a long time since we've actually been able to do this: :lol: #172 in CDs & Vinyl #26 in Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl) (up from yesterday's position of #35) Edited September 28, 20213 yr by rowork
September 28, 20213 yr Author Defo no apology required for a chart update!! Interesting that it’s not in pop but essentials is.
September 29, 20213 yr Unfortunately, it's dropped a little on Amazon today: #179 in CDs & Vinyl #30 in Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl) And frustratingly The Essential Sugababes has now overtaken: #139 in CDs & Vinyl #20 in Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl) #64 in Pop It's worth remembering that this is purely the Amazon Exclusive Edition on its own. I've also noticed that you need to manually select the standard vinyl when searching for One Touch, so that's likely hindering it too (and would explain why it's so low on their chart - currently 123,949 in CDs & Vinyl...).
September 29, 20213 yr Author I imagine the official site will provide most of the initial sales and then HMV. Dunno how well used amazon is for vinyl
September 29, 20213 yr Amazon always seems a cheaper option for vinyls than HMV for me, maybe due to prime not sure.
