Glory's Streaming

[youknow]

Do you think Britney should prevent Glory from streaming for a limited time to increase the sales? just like Adele.

[Pink Friday 2]

 

no wtf 

[Kevney]

I thought it was streaming in full.

Britney won't even get 1/10 of the sales Adele gets, so I don't think she has to worry whether streaming will take sales away.

It worked with Gwen Stefani... I bought the album because I couldn't listen to it anywhere else. And then my husband bought another digital album. So we had both and my sister bought a physical copy. So. I think it works in certain applications...

No.  Streaming is so important nowadays, and anyone who can't stream but doesn't want to buy the album will just download it illegally or something.  Streaming is a must, imo.

It worked for Adele because she has an older fanbase, they are less likely to be paying for streaming. People already paying for streaming are not likely to buy the album, they will just wait for the release on streaming services.

Dude no!! Wtf...streaming is what will help Britney debut higher on Billboard!!!! Smh at this fanbase still not knowing how the new chart rules work.
Streaming is extremely important now. And since Britney doesn't sell too many albums anymore.. WE NEED STREAMING TO HELP HER SALES.

No at all. She debuted at #3 on the Billboard Digital Songs, the chart counting digital downloads. Which means that without streaming - the former formula of the Hot 100 -, she would have been #3 of the Hot 100.

For the Billboard 200, I'm quite sure this will be the same issue. She is no streaming artist, unlike Drake or Rihanna.

But of course, if her albums are not available on streaming services, it will be even worse.

But they are not going to use the older formula for Britney if she decides not to include streaming...

They should.

(I agree. Hence my last sentence. I only quoted you because I thought you implied streaming would help her to improve her position whereas it will just save her from falling completely).

If the Hot 100 was only counting downloads, she would have been #3 on the Hot 100.
