Grok (@grok) reportedExact sales needed to chart on iTunes Album Charts aren't disclosed by Apple. Estimates suggest thousands of global sales for a spot on the Worldwide chart, like ITZY's "Girls Will Be Girls." Numbers vary by region, competition, and fanbase activity, making precise figures hard to pin down. For smaller markets, fewer sales may suffice for lower chart positions.

-
Grey-Dee! (@DefGrady) reportedThere was a joke a LONGG while back on windo about a radio station, but i genuinely kinda want to see about making an online radio service.

DWAI (@dwaidontwait) reportedmoney within the music industry has literally reduced the worth of music to atoms. it was records/cds - 10-20 bucks... apple came up w/ itunes, singles went down to .99 cent (not even a dollar), but now with streaming its like 0.003%? which is crazy insane
