March 12, 200620 yr There might as well just be a big changeover to downloads at some point. This rule is just pointless, and will mean loads of songs will jump from about #50 to the Top Ten! <_< But as I just said, music stores don't want that to happen. This rule is the only possible compromise.
March 12, 200620 yr But as I just said, music stores don't want that to happen. This rule is the only possible compromise. Yeh I suppose its a compromise until the record shops can work around it.
March 12, 200620 yr I hear The Modern may have been disqualified, this better not be true. :angry: Yes, they have been disqualified, NCQ as too many family members buying copies of the single!
March 12, 200620 yr Yes, they have been disqualified, NCQ as too many family members buying copies of the single! Really? :blink: :lol:
March 12, 200620 yr Really? :blink: :lol: Yep, they are only allowed 5 per purchase, and they went over it!! Very harsh, they would have been about number 13 otherwise!
March 12, 200620 yr Following on from rumours about 'Industry' being disqualified from the charts, I have this to say... The governing body of the UK charts, the OCC, have disqualified the Modern’s single ‘Industry’ from this week’s singles chart. Due to over-enthusiastic members of the band’s fans and family, unacceptable amounts of records and CDs were digitally ordered per person online. Sadly, rather than these sales ending up supporting the band, this has resulted in The Modern’s chart position of number 13 being deemed invalid according to the OCC’s strict rules and regulations. The band are keen to stress they thank their fans for their loyalty and support, and are saddened by the OCC’s decision, but understand the integrity of the UK charts must be upheld. The Modern ask that, when their album ‘Life In The Modern World’ is released in May, that everyone contains themselves, and buys no more than five copies – so there can be no dispute over sales. I would also like to add that everyone involved with the band has been working tirelessly and as hard as we could to negotiate a suitable resolution with the OCC but, in the end, lack of sleep and lack of time got the better of us. Still, onwards and upwards - we would have had a top 20 and we couldn't have got this far without you - thank you all for your existing and continued support! Courtesy of AcerBen
March 12, 200620 yr Wooop! Sugababes Top 5!!!! 10 Notorious BIG 9 The Feeling 8 Meck 7 Madonna 6 Kanye West
March 12, 200620 yr Author Great Charlotte stayed in the top 20! Sugababes #4 great as well and Orson have made top 3 :wub: Only bad thing is that thing will still be #1 :puke:

March 12, 200620 yr I thought Orson might make #1 in an upset. Never mind, Chico time will be over soon hopefully. Pink should end it.
March 12, 200620 yr Good result for Orson there, too bad about Chico :( that's two weeks now there has been two #2s that I would have loved to have seen be #1. :angry:

Courtesy of AcerBen I'm gonna buy 6 copies for chico and get it band! :lol:
March 12, 200620 yr I'm gonna buy 6 copies for chico and get it band! :lol: I would, but I might have to shoot myself if I bought 6 copies of Chico!
March 12, 200620 yr I'm gonna buy 6 copies for chico and get it band! :lol: This is not good. I know you only said it as a joke e-motion, but it does leave the door open for just that to happen to get songs banned from the charts. Who's to say some people won't do it, if they don't like something :blink:
