So you’re gonna discredit Travis but not Taylor? Wtf?
taylor sells albums trav sells hoodies tees lollipops and 5$ vinyls so yes

na actual sales of the album should be superior.
i mean the worth of a stream is tied to how much they equate to the sell of a single or album
THANK YOU!!!

DRAKE WOULDNT ABUSE THE SYSTEM BC HE THE BIGGEST EVER BRO WHAT ARENT YOU GETTING.. you should honestly respect the numbers he puts up without gimmicks. He doesn’t stoop that low and we should admire that about an artist
Selling physicals is not abusing the system

They shouldn’t because nobody consumes music like that. They don’t even make cars or computers with CD drives anymore

Those $5 vinyl did not contribute to the first week sales in any way shape or form because they weren’t even on sale for $5 until ten days after the album dropped.

selling tees hoodies hats and throwing in a lil collectable cd cover or vinyl is 100% not selling physicals

quite shocking that Drake is as big as he is. Cause he and OVO don't be pushing s***. they drop an album and go. so many hit songs that just end up being loosies.

That doesn’t make the sale worthless. Real people are choosing to spend real dollars on these physicals and that is worth infinitely more than a damn stream

Nobody said the sale is worthless but it doesn’t accurately depict how much the music is being consumed like streaming does

The T shirts and hoodies don’t mean s*** without an album at full price attached to it. The fans could literally buy the T shirts and hoodies separately if they wanted to.

Sure, but that’s a separate metric. You’re still conflating that with sales numbers. Two different metrics.

lol idk the facts but yea the CDs for the most part is some scam s*** to make money. But digital downloads are valid cause you still streaming it, it's just bought

yea but he’s throwing in the cd and vinyl for 5$ extra that is automatically attached to it so many people dont even think its there to take out

But the point still stands that if they don’t want the physical album they can just remove it, no one is being forced to buy these physicals

No I’m using the billboards actual words. The purpose of the chart is to measure multi metric music consumption and I’m saying the way they do that is faulty because artists like trav game the system

You conveniently left out that second part of Billboard’s own words:
(blending traditional album sales, track equivalent albums, and streaming equivalent albums)
It’s not JUST streaming consumption.

Your reading comprehension is poor dude. It’s using all of those metrics to measure the consumption of the music

The anti-physical media movement in recent years is so weird and dystopian man. Y’all can’t claim to care about the art but think that everything should be digital
