So will they count the preorders on the album sales right?

Dope is officially a bigger hit than Judas!

maybe they count out all the preorders thats why its so low :fail:

Remember that you are unique. Like everyone else.

Why aren't you asking for requests as much as you did for Applause. I mean it is in the first page but asking here would be more efficient.

I stopped caring when she stopped promoting. Fans don't need to pick up slack for her laziness

The pre-order Complete My Albums vs Applause and Dope I make at only -71K...

 

Magoo, do you think Gaga can pull 300k+?

The frustrating thing with the HDD/Billboard predictions for ARTPOP is they don't give the actual figures they have to date, only a prediction.  I suppose they don't give actual figures because that makes them high and mighty, unlike the music consumers (us), who have to be fed filtered information.

 

It is quite unlike the Official Charts Company in the UK who have already given us the first and second days' actual sales, so there is nothing to question.

Gaga should just edit the video quickly and release it next Wednesday when sales numbers come out :rip:

Do you think Billboard/HDD can purposely show lower sales?

It's not possible but just wondering!

Does buying more copies of ARTPOP from the same store not count? That is not fair if the person os paying for it. :P

I've got no measure of how the CDs are selling off the shop shelves, and working off historic ratios of digital/physical or fan/GP evidently doesn't work.

1 day later it feels a bit better. No longer in the meltdown mode.

 

Is HDD going to post all the predictions tonight?

Ok just gonna copy and paste this :smh:

 

http://ratethemusic.com/

1) Sign up, say your favorite format is Top 40
2) Wait for e-mail
3) Take survey on Rate The Music website. State you're familiar with DWUW, rank it very well, and then say you're not tired of it. Do NOT rank You and I the same way, either say you're tired of it or say you dislike it.
4) For the rest of the songs, answer honestly. Do not just rank them negatively because it's not Lady Gaga.

I suspect stores count the number of transactions, not the number of copies bought.  So if you want more than one copy of ARTPOP to count it is best to return to the shop to buy another.

I don't rly understand the preorder effect on the album release week. I remember miley's wrecking ball was rising on itunes on her releasing week but at the end the digital sales for wrecking ball decreased by -40% that week due to preorder album complete effect?

I'm calmed down today, but I still think she's gonna sell more than 300k. It will be the worst meltdown in the history of GGD if in Wednesday we have news like that.

When you pre-order an album you automatically get the songs that are avaliable, so when the album is finally on release they sustract the sales to those songs you already had.

The thing that seems strange to me it's that she did 100k of pre-order according to HDD, and so this week only 150k with a single in top10 for 13 weeks? Too much strange for me.

Wrecking Ball has been top 5 for 12 weeks now. Roar 14. So there you go
