It doesn't matter, the Hot 100 only tracks the United States

There is some real dross in that list. Way better top 100s out there.

Its not based on quality in any way, it's just a popularity list using the Hot 100

Yeah

I mean I think it’s really interesting actually

I think their algorithm or whatever it should be called -the point system is also really interesting

We all know the industry cheats to get those #1s.

Always has, always will.

It was a lot worse before November 1991, that's when Billboard started using Nielsen data instead of just kinda having record stores report their sales which was ripe for abuse...

It’s still interesting and I don’t really care how music is marketed. More payola!

True, but just saying.

It's even more interesting to find out what they do to cheat the system though. (TBF you can't really market a song to #1 with out people liking it)
