In Europe the consumption of music is different than in the US so it’s easy to be #1 with less than 1000 copies

And I wouldn’t be surprised if her American fans are buying from European online stores and using VPN just to bump her numbers there.

154mil streams in whole European market is low but still made her the 2nd most streamed artist there.

Right but does that really matter? If she was the second most streamed artist there, do the numbers change anything? She’s still at #2. Even if the numbers aren’t as high as they are elsewhere, they’re still apparently higher than everyone else’s below her. Yes, the consumption rates are different, so should we not look judge the success in that region according to that region’s specific qualifications? Because by any metric, she’s one of the two most successful artists on the content at the moment.
