Hey guys. This idea has been talked about before but I'm not sure whether or not it happened. Why note make a single thread for all of the iTunes updates? That way they can all STAY HERE instead of spamming up the single threads? Mods - if there's a problem with this, go ahead and lock it, but I definitely think this makes things easier for every party involved. If this idea has already been shot down in the past, I apologize. iTunes Accomplishments:- Taylor Swift's 'Mine' became the fastest selling iTunes song ever when it reached #1 in less than six hours!

Thanks for actually listening to me instead of ignoring my posts, Nico. People don't realize how horrible it is waking up and reading through PAGES of iTunes updates for news/radio spins/etc.

People don't realize how horrible it is waking up and reading through PAGES of iTunes updates for news/radio spins/etc. I think in the first post you should archive some of this information (i.e. how long it takes songs to reach a certain position, etc) it'd be a really useful resource in the future. =]

People don't realize how horrible it is waking up and reading through PAGES of iTunes updates for news/radio spins/etc. Almost as bad as reading through pages of trolling and stan fights? Sounds about right. Anyways... Britney is doing fantastic. :) Also this thread would be the perfect place to post the Pop itunes positions.

#29 - Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me - 140 minutes after release
Britney took somewhere between 124 and 133 minutes to crack Top 40. Two hours ain't bad. 2 and a third to get Top 30.

Also she's currently averaging just under 1 position per minute for the last 15 minutes

I think only hardcore fans would know how to manipulate the iTunes system though. (i.e. buy before 12).

It's funny because I see HIAM at #35 overall when I view pop bars, but its pop bars are nearly non-existent

You had to do a specific search to find it. It only went up on the front page and on her official page at 12 AM. So only us savvy fans could find it at 11. I don't know which is a better indicator though.

'Mine' took a little less than six hours to get to #1, guys.
I'm assuming that this "record" starts @ 12AM.

Though Grenade will be a tough one to take down that fast. Let's cross our fingers. It's a pretty hard feat to accomplish. Swift really outdid herself. She previously held the record with 16 hours when 'Today Was A Fairytale' was released. 'Mine' took a little less than six hours to get to #1, guys. I'm assuming that this "record" starts @ 12AM. Mine was actually released during the day, due to it leaking. So Britney rising this fast at night is crazy! Didn't know that! This is getting a bit insane then. :o

Nic, just for reference put an asterisk on the time and just note the time from 12 AM as well. I'm saying that just so we have both times when we dig up this thread later on.

[edit]Nvm, got to excited and clicked on the pop chart instead lol Mine said #9, but now it says #14. iTunes needs to make up it's mind.
- 156 minutes from 11 PM (Time first spotted on iTunes)
- 96 minutes after midnight (Time of official release)
