If we can establish that sales from outside of the UK count if they're purchased on a UK website, I am all over amazon.co.uk in a hot minute.
I get many of my chick lit books by UK/Irish authors there because they aren't Americanized, and it's the local expressions that I enjoy the most.
Kind of like all of our lovely international posters here...missed the world hug last night, but it's such a great dimension to this site to have global perspectives on Adam AND on other things, as well. Thank you!

juniemoon, that cartoon is hysterical and soooo true!That is pretty much even the way numbers' people look at the charts!  You are correct that sales figures come from Soundscan. There are also radio based charts. We refer to them as Mediabase charts. These show how many spins, any song, in any given format is getting nation wide. Many people believe radio spins is what makes a hit. Top 40 is good. Being Top 20 on Mediabase is considered a hit!! Top 10 is a big hit! These numbers may or may not correlate with sales. Radio stations use these charts as one criteria to decide if they want to add a song. For instance, KIIS probably doesn't add unitl a song is Top 20 or Top 10. They just added Kelly's new song this week and that song has been killing it rising up the charts. Then there are the Billboard charts which use multiple sources for their rankings, radio spins, sales, and I've heard they use other things like Video views and maybe even places like Rhapsody<< not sure about that one. They are more mysterious about their criteria. Right now, in the numbers thread, we are watching radio spins, via Mediabase charts. Here is the Mediabase chart for HAC. It is updated daily. There is also one for CHR but Adam hasn't made Top 40 there yet. Some people have memberships at these industry sites and can access more info, but I do not. Hope this all helps you a little. ^^^^ www.mediabase.com/mmrweb/insideradio/charts.asp?format=3&showyear=y&dpt=n

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday upheld a lower court's ruling declaring Proposition 8 to be in violation of the United States Constitution. The court's opinion won't go into effect for 14 days, which gives opponents time to file an expected appeal before the full court. That is, gay and lesbian couples wishing to marry in California are facing another lengthy wait. The 30-year-old, openly gay Lambert first touched on the news Tuesday when he forwarded a tweet from the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD), which said: “Breaking: Anti-gay #Prop 8 was once again ruled unconstitutional!” more..
