Imagine Dragons literally MORE THAN doubled the actual sales of DJ Khaled but DJ Khaled will still have the #1 album on Billboard. Because people DON'T want to buy it and are listening for free which caused his sales to literally triple.

Mess....

XXX.

I used to feel this way, but it's fair. 

I mean, the chart rules have always changed rules to reflect the changing ways we consume music.  It was only a matter of time before sales and actual album buying would start to become a thing of the past. 

I can't remember the last time I actually purchased an album.  I think it was Lemonade, but that was only, because I wanted to help Bee out.

I pay $9.99/month for a streaming platform with every album, single, EP, etc. on there to listen to at any time.  Of course Billboard had to change the charts. 

It's fair.
