FWIW, I signed up with WB and I get only occasional emails about other WB artists, I.e. kid rock. But it's not spam central, and I did get the Adam Ghosttown email.

No e-mail for me either, but it doesn't matter, I'll get the info here or on twitter anyway... I am more puzzled (and almost upset) by the fact that I CAN'T FIND Adam's Ghost Town on Spotify at all. Neither in the WB list (as was posted on page 4) nor under "Adam Lambert"... I am using a free version. Those of you who do see the song - do you have premium? Is there anyone else who can't find it on Spotify? ETA: I was able to find it using this direct link: twitter.com/TALCvids/status/589102098312232960I still don't understand why it does not come up in the SEARCH...

Here is the iTunes info about pre-sales and their store chart! Full explanation of how iTunes charts pre-orders now. Store chart only.
The latest move inside iTunes addresses how pre-orders are counted. Previously, pre-orders impacted the store chart as the orders came in, as well as the day of the release, when those orders were fulfilled to customers. That usually meant a title with a large amount of preorders would be assured the No. 1 slot on the day of release, an effective marketing tool for labels which allowed them to bring attention to the album's availability by touting its No. 1 spot in the iTunes chart.
However, in the new configuration, all pre-orders are wiped clean as the clock strikes midnight on the day of the release. Consequently, that title's chart position is determined by what new sales activity takes place on the first day of its release, not all the activity it had generated through pre-orders. This move cuts down chances of landing the No. 1 spot, as the new release will have to get there solely through new purchases on the day of release.
Major label executives say they understand why Apple made the move it did, but that it will take some getting used to. "This is a big move, because everyone in the industry pays attention to the iTunes storefront more than any other store or service," says one major label executive. "No one looks at the Amazon, Google or Spotify music pages the way they pay attention to iTunes."At least they are now counting pre-orders only once. Before a pre-order was counted twice. This makes iTunes the same as Amazon. I wish they would both just count pre-orders when they were actually delivered. :( Bothers the analyst in me! Me too! All the presales should be counted in release day, which is the day you get them. Counting when ordered makes absolutely NO sense!!
