A little bit of caution: I don't know if it actually works. For all I know this might be the best method to throw away your streams. Or it might be the most brilliant invention ever until Spotify stops it. Maybe throw the band that invented it some streams too, btw. It really is a clever way to get more attention for their music. While this may count for revenue payment what indication is there that it will count in Billboard? Gaming Spotify....somehow I don't think that will end well. For me, not going there. My thoughts were.Could this come back and bite us or worse Adam in the ass.

I do not believe that this link -- eternify.it/#Adam--Lambert -- is running the US Spotify. I have no time to track it down right now but it appears to be a hack through Italy -- in which case it would NOT COUNT FOR BILLBOARD.

Me too. They did spin GT recently so I think they are a good station to request from. We need spins. Let's do what we can

I liked Taylor's letter to Apple, and was pleased that Apple responded so quickly and positively. But then I read the letter from the photographer who says Taylor doesn't pay for their work, expects to use their photos for free in perpetuity! So she doesn't practice what she preaches? Those photographers are either paid to be there or they are freelancing of their own free will. Either way they are photographing TS, using her image, her hard-worked-for celebrity and perhaps a very-expensive-to-put-together concert. Photographers take advantage of celebrities all of the time. TS is just taking back what is hers in the first place. YMMV

AWESOME! Considering he was up against an American icon who hadn't released anything in a decade and The Swift... I'd say BIG win Now keep streaming! We don't want a huge fall-off next week EDIT: So what was the tweet from Warner Promo about at the top of this page? Where are they getting #2? He was the #2 debut for this week. Swift is not a debut week. She has been on there forever. (too long.heh)

But then I read the letter from the photographer who says Taylor doesn't pay for their work, expects to use their photos for free in perpetuity! So she doesn't practice what she preaches? Perhaps a little....but the difference is that I am assuming those pictures are of her. She is claiming their use as partial owner because she is the subject. When apple is using an artists music and not paying, they cannot claim the same connection at all. I think the situations are quite different...the photographers still have the 'use value' for them self...the 'royalty' as it were. Apple was not giving that to the artists and therein lies the difference. As far as I can tell..... eta...exactly 4ms...I wrote this before seeing your post. And think about it...Taylor is the only reason these pics have any monetary value!! wtf...I do not see what leg these photographers think they have to stand on... eta2...I believe Adam is trademarking all his images now too, is he not...sure I read that here some time ago...

I was thinking perhaps we can get 4Ms to remind us about giving the video hits since I believe that counts for Billboard. But I think it is just for Ghost Town and not the album. Is that right. Still, if GT gets on hot 100, (and even if it doesn't) it is another way to push it along
