Hope someone can answer this. Is it better to buy each song individually than the whole CD at once. I thought I read that it will count more on the charts to get them individually. Everyone purchase tomorrow and lets get it high on itunes. Radio watches the position of songs and if its high I would think that would result in lots more airplay!
GOOD!!! This gives us more time to plan the CORRECT STRATEGY!
this is the suggestion going around from some Adam sites:
REGARDING THE PURCHASE OF THE ENTIRE EP VS INDIVIDUAL SINGLES - From Billboard: "If you buy a whole album at one time (for example, using the "Buy Album" button on iTunes), it counts as one album sold. If a consumer buys one or multiple tracks from an album separately, those count as a "track purchase." http://www.billboard.com/news/ask-billboard-1002651844.story#/news/ask-billboard-1002651844.story
SO IN ORDER TO MAXIMIZE SALES OF TRESPASSING FOR SINGLE CHARTING - BUY EACH TRESPASSING REMIX SEPARATELY AND DO NOT COMPLETE THE ALBUM.
We can help EP sales and charting by purchasing on Amazon (the EP will chart with album sales on BB200)
@2:08 Thank you for the information,I believe that sounds correct to me. If any one else wants to chime in please do. Let's get Adam really high on the charts!!!!
that doesn't make sense to me to buy individual tracks these tracks are not the TP single being released for radio play. Just throwing that question out there.
I've already bought the whole pre-order EP cd. Now I'm wonderings if pre-orders even count. Very confusing and yes it's not the trespassing we want on the radio so it is confusing??
Buy on iTunes individual tracks but DO NOT COMPLETE means DO NOT BUY ALL but leave one track out so it will count for the track you bought. If you buy all tracks, it will count as ALBUM, not count for the track to chart the song.
I'm going to buy the album on my iTunes account and the single on each of my kids i-touches/accounts ... Does that seem good?? Anyone answer please. I'm on a budget and strongly feel Adam wouldn't want me to do more than I can, but I was thinking of purchasing as I wrote above, does that make sense? within our house, we can trade iTunes trx without addt'l purchase, but I can afford two single track purchases on my kids I touches and the EP on mine. Thoughts?
I'm requesting like crazy from all the links from adam official for trespassing. I haven't found 1 yet that's on the playlist. Best way is to tweet them I think. They give thier twitter info, so it's easy.

Can someone who REALLY UNDERSTANDS how this all works confirm:
Is this what this message is saying?
buy entire album on Amazon
buy each Trespassing remix singly on i-tunes
And is this truly the best plan of action?

Got it about how to purchase this buy but I don' understand Adam's second tweett. he is focussed on the EP.
What about the radio verson of Trespassing the single? Isn't it available on iTunes today or tomorrow?
Is there somewhere we can listen to snippets of the songs on new album? JWG
