US Billboard Charts

[immel]

Well, it's still impressive that Japan has the 2nd biggest music market out there, and their population isn't even half of the population of the US... and there's those countries with like a billion inhabitants... what the hell, they live without music?

:/

^ They have piracy. Like China. Bootleg heaven. It's a wonder that record companies haven't conspired to bomb the place or anything.

[immel]

I wonder what the sales would look like, in China, if the bootlegs counted.... o-O;

[truehappiness]

Well, piracy and that many of China's residents probably don't have the resources to buy official releases..

[Mad_Cactuar]

^ dude. your font usage is AMAZING. I frickin love your set because of your fonts. I cant even get my font to have an outline.

^Layer Style -> Stroke

MC, can't you just post or link to the whole charts for the Hot 100 and the Top 200 (or at least the top 20-40 with regards to albums) instead of just posting only the ones you personally care about? I mean, wouldn't it bug you if someone else did the same for only what they liked and you didn't see what you were looking for?

[cleftjuston]

i didn't know justin timberlake was that popular

No it wouldn't bug me, I'd just request. And I don't think I have enough time to type out the entire charts into a post. Yeah, a link should be sufficient but didn't everyone at least know that it's been Billboard dot com for years?

[truehappiness]

GO CLAY!
He looks so good now! Like.. not all.. femmy.

[Delirium-Zer0]

I know, it's weird but he kinda looks like Christian Bale on that album cover. Freaked me out, lemme tell you.

[truehappiness]

..do you.. mean the guy who played Batman?! O_o;

[Mad_Cactuar]

Wow. Aiken sure did a reinvention. o__o Who's he seeing? Dr. Phil? Timbaland? Madonna?

What section on the site tells you the sales numbers? I can see the chart just fine, but everyone seems to know exact sales numbers but lil' ole me

Clay Aiken reminds me of Junsu from DBSK in that pick. Christian Bale.....not so much. He's still not manly enough. You're gettin' there Clay, keep trying.

[Mad_Cactuar]

Oh, THAT. Just look in the news section. Or when all fails, check wikipedia. Some of them have the sales numbers. And no, they aren't fake as they're from Billboard. Every Thursday afternoon (my time), Billboard will report sales numbers for albums. And in the night, they report stuff on singles before updating all the charts. They won't give out sales numbers unless you pay I guess.
