Sales Plus Streaming:LW TW Artist Title Label SPS Index % change -- 1 TAYLOR SWIFT 1989 BIG MACHINE 335,419 -- Where is Taylor Swift streaming though? Not on Spotify obviously. They're including track equivalent albums, where every 10 digital tracks = 1 album sale.

Wait, is HDD charting Meghan Trainor's album before it's released? Or are they saying that all of the streaming and TEA sales go to the EP before the album is released?

I don't see why people are surprised about Pentatonix's success... they're talented, they've gained a following, they're talented, and people share their videos all over the place, I've shown them to ALL my friends and family, and they love them! It's pleasant to listen to, and honestly it makes sense to me, especially with a holiday album.

Hmm yeah I guess this pre-order business wasn't resolved as this sales plus streaming stuff started. Certainly an album can't chart on Billboard before it's released? But there are iTunes streams sometimes a week before an album is released. How will that work?

But there are iTunes streams sometimes a week before an album is released. How will that work? I feel like Billboard won't allow albums to chart until they're fully released. Wouldn't make sense otherwise to me.

They can keep track of streams and sales though, so I'm sure they could add that into the total. Right?

Should I be worried that Pentatonix will overtake Taylor in the next few weeks (on the pure sales chart)???

I think Pentatonix could sell in the average of 250k per week throughout December. Taylor will probably sell around that as well, will be quite close between the two. 1D should be at #3 behind the two for the coming weeks. (I don't care about the one that combine stream and single sales, I'm talking about pure sales chart here)

If Mary sells 75k I'll be shocked. The project has been botched from the start.

She has a pretty dedicated fan base though and she has had some fairly decent promo. She might surprise, but who knows.

It may be a bit premature to say this,But this has a chance to break Adele's "21" total weeks on top at #1. Taylor's "1989" has a good chance to do it. It is possible.

Plus, I'm hoping Adele herself will block that from happening once she releases 25.
