Will it still chart on BB even tho it's 99 cents?

No it's ineligible. Gotta be 1.29 or more that's why Billboard changed it methodology
Lies. But not intentional. It is eligible.

Where is the lie?
This is copy and pasted from Billboard:

"Unit sales for Digital Tracks priced below $0.39 during their first three months of release will not be eligible for inclusion on Billboard's digital songs charts.

If a retailer offering a title for less than the above stated prices is a daily reporter to Nielsen SoundScan, units will be removed for charting purposes solely for the dates in which the title was priced less than the minimum.
If a title was priced under the minimum during a portion of the day, all sales for that title on that day will not count towards the Billboard charts unless accurate transaction data for that title during the specific sales hours can be provided to Nielsen SoundScan for verification."

Looks as though $.39 is the minimum.

Ok. Cause I was like 99c and no BB charting? When many indie artists sell their singles for 99c? But thanks for clearing that up.
