Well, they have the right to write that because after he died, his sales really did go up. |

Don't you get it, they aren't listing him #1 on the main chart only in the "catalog" section when his album has sold the most this week, many people are angered by this. They started a petition in this article and over 600 people did it and they deleted it, they are pathetic.

His sales were mainly increased by the fact that he's dead. And I bet that only about 5% of the country really cares about the chart. |

He should be listed #1 if he is bestseller, no matter how old the album is .... do they have a set release age limit or something? |

Well if billboard artcles usually have a range of abou 20-80 comment in 2 days, and this article get 700 in 3 hours, I'm pretty sure people care. It is unfair for them to do it. Many people on youtube are talking about this. adn then what makes billboard so pathetic is that they delte all the comments. But anyway it wnt back to 150 so it would of been like 850 so far.

I don't care if he sold 10,000 albums and that was the most sold that week, he should still be rewarded with the real #1 spot like any other artist whose sells are the most should be rewarded.

It's the way they create the charts. They do it to every artist, not just MJ. It's completely fair. |

So anyway, this is a new rule that Billboard put and this is what angers people, they didn;t do this for elvis nor anyonelese. It is unfair and dirty for billboard to do that's why 99.9% are angered by billboard doing this.

So anyway, how do you guys truly feel about this? Should this be in debate by the way? Should he be listed as #1 in the main chart or #1 in the catalog chart that nobody gives a damn about?

It doesn't really matter if he gets no. 1 or not. He still will get decent sales. Besides, he got honour anyway. Not like this one incident that he didn't go no. 1 is going to mark his entire career. |

Maybe if you weren't so immature and could control yourself that wouldn't have happened. I did not say anything mean or discriminatory, and therefore I expect my posts to be responded to politely. The way you put "so anyway" is obvious evidence that you are trying to piss me off. The way to ignore me would be just that, not post anything after I do. Edited by user 01 July 2009 05:57:02(UTC)
