About streams, sales and reputation

[bright95]

I have observed that some artists get some great hits in countries where the reputation is extremely low (example: delta goodrem debuted a single at # 1 in Brazil, but its reputation is 1). It would be nice if there was more "resistance" for artists with a low reputation.

Another thing is about streams. I already change the sales for each country but still some countries have very low numbers for streams. A few examples: the number 1 in Mexico is doing 2.5 million streams, in Brazil, 2 million, in Colombia, less then 1 million, but these countries actually make bigger numbers just with spotify, and besides spotify they have other great platforms like Deezer for Brazil, and Apple Music itself.  another thing that I realized but didn't notice yet is different in the last patch is that the album streams looked like random numbers, and not the sum of the streams of each track, as it happens in reality.

To conclude, I think it would be better to have a reduction in digital sales, but mainly in physical sales (mainly for singles), because today only great artists sell a number of considered physical albums / singles, the vast majority of revenue comes from streams 

I'll put some examples of Spotify Charts from countries that I believe would need an increase in streams  (https://spotifycharts.com/regional/br/weekly/latest)
