I for one don't agree that they should put legal downloads along with sales.
Yeah the numbers will be way more inflated but still,
the money artists/labels get from legal downloads are nothing compared to what they get from physical sales, so if we won't know just the physical sales it won't be as interesting imo.
+The artists will be on the exact same state as they are, just with inflated numbers that add no meaning.
I think it's cool oricon counts the physical sales and RIAJ the recochoku (chaku uta) and iTunes (PC downloads).
We can know physical sales and legal downloads (welll 100,000-250,000, 750,000-1,000,000 and such). We don't need them combined together imo.
