Does oricon count digital sales too?

No, oricon doesn't include digital sales in single charts.

Really, you should be thankful that they don't. :)

^Hmm... I dun think ayu is that bad on digital sales.... :P

Compared to many other artists - yes she is. If they factored in digital sales with the physical sales Ayu's yearly single positions would be even lower than they already are. Probably not even top 50.

The only reason Together When was an exception was because that was the only way you could get the single. For example, Mirrorcle World isn't even ranked in the top 100 for digital sales this year.

:no

Then you'd lose all the people who like GREEN but don't like Days. Why would GREEN not being on the single make anyone more likely to buy it anyways?

^it's just a thought...
I like both Days and GREEN, I was basing it on the ringtone downloads...

... what are the current sales of GREEN/Days?

Days still not available on iTunes Japan.

At least it's over 50k.

99k

Exactly, and it's not even halfway done yet this week, so I really don't know why people are complaining so much.:rolleyes

99k is alot for 4 or isit 3days?

Today (2008.12.19) sales:

No. 1 - 4963
Total index - 61629
x 1.75 = 107851

Not very bad... I was thinking the index would be 3500 - 4000. It's actually close to 5000 :D. Yeahhhhhhhhh!!

So weekly sales should end up at about... 120000?

YAY!
Great sales even it has huge drop on the 2nd day.

Anyways, I've expecting Days will have 120k+ on 1st week!

So yeah hopefully the index will be above 5 k the next 2 days so it's almost safe to say it's gonna sell around 120 k in the first week (MW would probably end up selling the same if it didn't have an extra day).

^ Yup!
She secured the #1 spot, for sure!
