Mikal 0 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 OP please update all info... SO WILL BUYING A SINGLE SONG COUNT AS AN ALBUM SALE OR NOT? I'm confused a song counts as a song and buying the album will count as 1 sale of the album. It is the exact same as iTunes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommymonster44 0 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 How many times does this have to be repeated for the critics? ARTPOP is not going to be free through the app. You can download the app for free, but the musical part of it will cost money after the download if you want to access it. Gaga's tweet:The ARTPOP app is Free, available in App Stores on your device. You can purchase the music through the ARTPOP app once it's downloaded. Bill's tweet (in response to a tweet claiming that the music on the app was free):@slave2damusic @billboard err the music isnt free in gaga's case.Another tweet from Bill:As we understand, Gaga fans get #ARTPOP app for free & can buy the album in-app. Albums purchased this way would count on Billboard charts.

Nick1495 991 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Everytime that someone or something gives off negativity towards GaGa and the fan base we should trend something #LadyGaGaLovesEveryone and #ARTPOP. We would get SOOO much publicity cause everyone is against her :) We would be trending something every week! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mason 153 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Perez needs to quit while he's ahead. He is just making himself look more and more stupid. Bill even commented on Perez trying to start a stan war between Gaga and Katy fans. @bwerde The @ladygaga v @katyperry storyline is fun for media. But in reality it's just the 4th quarter, when most huge albums drop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick1495 991 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Wait can someone sum up what's actually happening i'm at school :') Perez Hilton and a GaGa Hate Blog are freaking out thinking that the ARTPOP APP will scam people. But they fail to comprehend that downloading the app won't count towards the charts. It's just more GaGa hate like every week from Perez :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We count all major/credible retailers RT @DerrickGaga97: @bwerde If I buy songs from google play do they count for billboard? Bill Werde â€@bwerde 1hThey do as a rule, digitally RT @RayOfGlory: @bwerde will preorders count on the 1st weeks sales? Bill Werde â€@bwerde 1hOne downloaded song via the @ladygaga #ARTPOP app will no more count as an album on our charts than it would if bought at iTunes. Bill Werde â€@bwerde 41minThe @ladygaga v @katyperry storyline is fun for media. But in reality it's just the 4th quarter, when most huge albums drop. Bill Werde â€@bwerde 40minIf I had to guess, Gaga will outsell Perry for albums. Singles will depend on quality/radio friendliness. High hopes for both pop talents. Bill Werde â€@bwerde 1hYes RT @PeterTheMonster: @bwerde but in-app purchase of the WHOLE album will count, right? Bill Werde â€@bwerde 1h @suxxxtain I don't think Gaga will have any trouble maintaining attention from the public. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommymonster44 0 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 So basically all we learned is that buying singles in the app count as single sales, buying the album in the app counts as album sales, pre-orders both physical, digital, and app-based count as first week sales, and app sales will be monitored by the normal groups to make sure the numbers are accurate and unbiased. So basically Billboard policy for how it handles every other release in existence. Critics have no ground to stand on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TheNextOne Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Perez Hilton and a GaGa Hate Blog are freaking out thinking that the ARTPOP APP will scam people. But they fail to comprehend that downloading the app won't count towards the charts. It's just more GaGa hate like every week from Perez :/ This. Bjork and Jay-Z were able to successfully use the app format. Why do they think Gaga of all people would want to scam her own fans? Perez and that blogger are the definition of pressed.
