I mentioned earlier that Rein Me In declined by 300 streams this week.

I have calculated that a decrease of 1890 streams would have resulted in DCL2 so Rein Me In survived by 1590 streams.

The overall streaming market decreased by 3.1513% - Rein Me In only decreased by 0.5%.

300 streams or 300 streaming sales?

sales equivalent streams

I was one of the 909 that bought Robyn’s album this week! Couldn’t get my physical copy until last Friday

I'd love to know what the margin of error is in their forecast for Thursday streams (something I expect we'll never find out!). If it's bigger than 1890 streams then it's a little suspect allowing Rein Me In to go back to SCR as there's no way of knowing whether it really did beat the market decline... though of course the market decline also factors in the forecasted streams so....?

Perhaps anothere reason why a decline should be a decline.... (or not?)

You would have to assume that the Thursday estimate wouldn’t move the needle on whether a song declined or not relative to the available Wednesday figures.

IE. If a song was due a decline from the actual figures up to Wednesday it would get one from the Thursday estimate and vice versa.

While this may be true we can't be 100% certain. If the data hadn't shown an overall decline yet, but say the Monday to Wednesday data was clearly showing a strong trend towards declining, that just fails to reach a decline because of the Friday to Sunday data, then it is possible that the estimated Thursday data should be and so may be enough to tip it to decline depending on how exactly the estimate is calculated... (or the reverse could also be true a decline is currently present but the Monday to Wednesday data suggested a significant trend towards an increase, which did not quite offset the decline Friday to Sunday...). While you'd expect the predicted data to follow the overall pattern of Friday to Wednesday, there may be instances when it shouldn't...

1890 sales could be as much as 189,000 streams. The songs streams were pretty steady. The OCC’s is not going to make an error that big in its estinate.
