^ I think the Amazon ones are because if you pre-ordered his album today (or yesterday) were the days the additional tracks were "purchased" and sent out to pre-orders.

I have a question:
Since WWFM went more than double platinum in single sales, I wonder if this new Billboard system used to calculate albums sales that takes into account single sales had been in effect, if FYE would have gone platinum. It had about 838,000 units sold.

It had about 838,000 units sold. It's actually quite possible that FYE has gone platinum but unless either Adam or the record company asks for certification it doesn't happen. The artist pays a fee for the certification process and those plaques that they give out are billed to the artist and certain credits on the album require plaques to be presented. With the number of producers, etc on FYE who would have to receive plaques it really isn't cheap and at this point having that certification would not be of significant benefit. At some point during his career they may choose to go back and certify previous albums but it's really nothing but bragging rights.

Mediabase numbers this morning
top 40
40 37 1417 1344 73 6.594 - 3 spins
HAC
30 25 982 886 96 4.346 +30
Nice spin pick up on HAC. One position up today on both charts. Hoping we start to see spin building momentum towards the weekend. Sam Smith is on the HAC chart now and Tori Kelly is impacting with a new single. Seems Pretty Girls has topped out after all that push. So interesting following the ebb and flow of the songs. It is a dog fight at the top but I imagine is is always like that.

Yep, some growth on CHR/Top40 would be welcome at this point.
