TXIII Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I just went ahead and ordered the super deluxe on Amazon. It's not the same as going to a record store, but oh well. I can't wait to finally listen! So jealous of everyone who has their copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xtaticboy82 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Me too! Maybe they will refund the rest that I already paid. Went to JB Hifi and the CD is already stacked there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebelvvv Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 why is it only number 13 on aus itunes! hmph. It's apparently because of this BS. Madonna can't catch a break this era: https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/6487769/apple-itunes-store-concerns-changes The latest move inside iTunes addresses how pre-orders are counted. Previously, pre-orders impacted the store chart as the orders came in, as well as the day of the release, when those orders were fulfilled to customers. That usually meant a title with a large amount of preorders would be assured the No. 1 slot on the day of release, an effective marketing tool for labels which allowed them to bring attention to the album's availability by touting its No. 1 spot in the iTunes chart. However, in the new configuration, all pre-orders are wiped clean as the clock strikes midnight on the day of the release. Consequently, that title's chart position is determined by what new sales activity takes place on the first day of its release, not all the activity it had generated through pre-orders. This move cuts down chances of landing the No. 1 spot, as the new release will have to get there solely through new purchases on the day of release. Prepare yourself for the ignorant wave of reports that Madonna's new album has already flopped before it began. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 (edited) ^WTF!!!! When does this change take effect? edit: Oh wait, it's just for the iTunes chart. I thought for a sec that all of Madonna's pre-orders were not going to account for anything for official album chart .

ryan Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 That doesn't make any sense why carly was billed the full amount... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIRTY PIG Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Can't be bothered to read this thread but based on the music the video, performances, controversy, magazine covers and the fact she is EVERYWHERE this is the best era since ROL. The fact she doesn't go on tour until the end of August means we are getting videos and a lot more promo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebelvvv Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I wonder if it will count if I cancel my pre-order and then re-purchase the complete my album on release day. It's so hard to help Madonna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soma Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I now have the digital deluxe album but I have to go to work. After that I'll check if one of the stores have the super deluxe version.

JWAD Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 They have their own artists to push... And they have many. Universal's market share is like 40%. That's more reason to push Madonna as an artist, people are still talking about the Brits and she will be appearing on Jonathan Ross next Saturday. She is technically one of their artists and their deal is to market and distribute her work. No excuses for this one. However Carly Rae Jepsen gets two section on the newsletter for her new video and her iTunes single. I guess she's more important than the most successful female artist of all time. Thank god she only has one more album for them. Never thought I'd say this but bring back Warner Bros! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
