For those in the UK, the CBBC/ChartShow interview is now on the BBCR1 iPLayer. Given the host, it would be a good idea to give it some hits in preference to the YT vid www.bbc.co.uk/tv/radio1 |

Lambert Music 411lambertmusic411ADAM FANS: Priorities for album release wk: buying/gifting, streaming etc + activity timeline & detailed info. Plz RT requestadamlambert.com/2015/06/14/priorities-for-album-release-week/ …Detailed instructions alike Q3's.I am bringing just three paragraphs out of the whole article - I feel it is important we all read and undertand what needs to be streamed, but please read the full article!
MONDAY from 12:01 a.m. to 11:59 p.m.
STREAM “Ghost Town” video on YouTube and song on Spotify as much as you can. Reminder: Pandora and online radio DO NOT count for the Billboard charts; Amazon Prime, Beats Music, Rdio DO count. Needs to be on-demand streaming. This NPR article seems to indicate looping is OK but you can use your judgment. Let’s put it this way: If looping is the only way you are going to be able to stream, then loop away! The “Ghost Town” streams will count toward both Billboard’s Hot 100 singles chart and the Hot 200 album chart. NOTE: There is no extra value in streaming any individual song on the album except “Ghost Town”!
TUESDAY starting at 12 a.m. through SUNDAY at 11:59 p.m.STREAM the album on Spotify and other services. Reminder: Pandora and online radio DO NOT count for the Billboard charts; Amazon Prime, Beats Music, Rdio DO count. Needs to be on-demand streaming. Again, this NPR article seems to indicate looping is OK but you can use your judgment. Let’s put it this way: If looping is the only way you are going to be able to stream, then loop away! *IMPORTANT NOTE: There isn’t a definite answer on whether YouTube streaming counts for Billboard 200 album chart (but we know it does for the Billboard 100 singles chart). Billboard has specifically not said and is vague. Their most comprehensive article on the matter doesn’t mention it counting or not counting.* TUESDAY starting at 12 a.m. through SUNDAY at 11:59 p.m.STREAM “Ghost Town” video on YouTube and song on Spotify. Reminder: Pandora and online radio DO NOT count for the Billboard charts; Amazon Prime, Beats Music, Rdio DO count. Needs to be on-demand streaming. This really is as important as streaming the album. Here’s why: The song is about to enter the Billboard Hot 100 chart (on Bubbling Under chart last week), and radio looks at that chart which combines radio spins, sales and streams. Adam has said repeatedly he wants a radio hit and just last week stressed that’s his main attention right now and not album sales. Again, as a bonus: The “Ghost Town” streams will count toward both Billboard’s Hot 100 singles chart and the Hot 200 album chart.

Why have we been pushing YT up until now. Was that to encourage radio play? ETA: OK, maybe I'll look into one of the streaming thingsies. Youtube views count for singles streaming that goes in to the Hot 100 and up until now all we had to push was a single. Thanks. So it still counts for something--just not album sales. |

But if you can do both it will help Ghost Town as well! I'm having two browsers and one is running spotify and the other is running YouTube about 24/7. If you want you can play my playlist www.rdio.com/people/nicanica236/playlists/13300896/The_Original_High/I'll be adding the rest of TOH tracks as they become available on rdio. I just bought a month worth of Rdio for my iphone to augment Spotify on my laptop. So far very confusing but am alway that away with new tech. What would l type into search to get your playlist? |

Ok, so major on Ghost Town to (1) get the biggest bang for your buck on Billboard (2) support the single on radio. |

However since I'm in The Netherlands I think that won't help Adam much. RDio isn't of influence on our charts. Just found out: Spotify, Deezer, JUKE, Ziggo Music, Xbox Music and YouTube are the only ones. (Just put up two more tabs with Deezer and JUKE.) What I can do is connect my work laptop to the US server at home and try to run RDIO on that one (Spotify doesn't work when I'm on VPN). Then I might be able to put in a little extra for you guys. |

Adam has stiff competition next week on the US album chart. And some of the audio streams count for both singles and album charts. You can stream two + different free audio services at the same time -- that is the best thing to do. >> In any case, clock starts in 8 hours for the album chart week.Can you tell us which audio streams count for both singles and album charts? Do you mean you can stream 3 different services at once? If clock starts in 8 hours, that's before midnight.. so it starts Sunday evening? |

I have purchased 3 different iTunes albums and wanted to gift another one to my niece who has an iPhone. I don't see a gift option, just a drop down of my pre-order. Where should I be looking?

Thanks for the reminder, but I don't do any of the other that count for Billboard.  HERE IS THE LIST OF STREAMING SERVICES THAT COUNT FOR ALL BILLBOARD AND RIAA DIGITAL SINGLES CHART (certification). Amazon Prime Audio On-Demand (The album stream on Amazon counts) Beats Music Audio On-Demand Google Play Audio On-Demand Medianet Audio On-Demand Medianet Audio Tethered Rdio Audio On-Demand Plays (including non-DMCA radio)
Rdio Audio Tethered PlaysRhapsody Audio On-Demand Plays Rhapsody Audio Tethered Plays Slacker Audio On-Demand Plays Spotify Audio On-Demand Plays (including non-DMCA radio) Xbox Music Audio On-Demand Plays (including non-DMCA radio) Xbox Music Audio Tethered Plays Read more: adamtopia.com/thread/3066/6-14-15-finally-begins?page=17#ixzz3d46lYga6What is the difference between Rdio Audio On-Demand Plays and Rdio Audio Tethered Plays? Rdio is a free service right? |
