But can we just make a playlist with the shortest songs from the album and keep looping that over and over again?

Yes, that would work fine.

there are fans that you can put underneath your laptop so it's constantly cooled, sometimes makes a lot of noise lmfao

Keep it plugged in obviously

and use an extra portable fan on top of it what the hell

Make sure to update your laptop fully before you leave! That way it doesn't need to shut down and restart.  

ok so another question about streaming? 

If I use the same account of Spotify in differnet devices to stream at the same time, will they stop counting the stream?

BJ had such low sells and reviews that the stores surely only bought bare bones so this will be mostly downloads and online shipping. And we gave up on Make me as a fan base so the song has no hit single. Of course, expectations are low. Itunes marketing is the best thing RCA can do for the album. Britney is mostly a one format radio artist and it's a young format so she does have her work cut out for her.
 
As a fanbase, we really need to Stream the **** out of Glory. If we stan really hard we can lift this album to a higher peak than BJ. Britney put a lot of work into this album and us stans (those who spend time on message boards, twitter and other places talking about her) need to show we appreciate it. Let us show RCA that we want Britney to make the kind of music she wants.

Will Spotify streams for Make Me count? For example, it just gained almost 300,000 more streams from yesterday to today. So next week will all of these daily Spotify gains on Make Me count towards the album?

it might be seen as an anomaly I feel like, I've never witnessed someone doing this, but I have witnessed people streaming with multiple spofity's open

Can I suggest maybe getting an Apple Music subscription? It's free for the first three months and you can cancel it I'm sure! that'll help!

And youtube works funny, but the whole page has to refresh upon a new stream I think. And if you space in between a song from another artist every so often it'll look more credible.

why do we believe that . no one knows what will happen ( vma , carpool and streaming effects ) so predictions are meaningless at this point 

who knows ? maybe gp will eat her **** up this time

I did,I hope a few people will use it too and it makes good numbers 

This way she's losing her success from other countries but we have to gather everything together and make it big this time.

[ShaneBritneyFan]

It's the label's expectation. Obviously they know no other promo is scheduled besides VMA and Carpool. She might beat that but it's not what they are expecting. She needs to to break 150k to even have a shot against Frank second week and Barbara, and FGL.

eh she'll have success in Canada, UK, Brazil, Mexico and the US, I'm here for the major markets. We know she'll smash in Asia and decent in France.

Do it! With different transactions! 

Have your savings for the rest of the year, it's go time ya'll, you got your quality music now tell Britney how much you love it!

But if i use itunes to gift it , its technically different transactions right? 

[anakinskywalker]

Even streams will be hard because we don't have a hit the people are listening right now, and Britney really needed a strong lead single to bring attention to her since she is out of the spotlight for a time.. But 100-110k of just pure sales is not bad at all in 2016

I really don't know how gifting is counted on the billboard, but maybe this helps:

Do multiple purchases on iTunes count toward sales figures? I know iTunes has something in place to prevent you from making the mistake of purchasing the same album/single twice or multiple times. However, if you do end up buying an item multiple times, do all of your purchases count and are they figured into the sales figures? For example, if I bought a single two or three times, would every purchase count or would they only count the first purchase from my account? Thanks in advance!

Dear Dan,

Buying a track two times would count as two sales. There could be a number of reasons you would want to buy the same song twice (maybe you want to have it on 10 different computers). However, if you were to buy a track, let's say, oh, 800 times, that would be considered an anomaly and would not count. So it's not possible to rig the charts by buying the same track an exorbitant amount of times. The same has always been true of physical records as well. 

I know someone who purchased several hundred copies of the same CD single a few years ago to give out as gifts, and was surprised to find out that sale was not counted for the charts. I explained to her later that her sale must have been considered an anomaly, and possible chart-rigging, although that wasn't her intent. Perhaps if she had purchased 10 singles each at 80 different stores she would have made an impact on the charts, but I don't think she had the time or energy.

is that a lot for todays standards? it feels like a lot

so maybe just gift one at a time? So it's separate apple receipts?

Why can Beyawnce pull numbers like 600K+ but Godney cannot? What has changed since Circus era when she debuted with 500K+ in first week?
