This one's important; Bob Lefsetz has articulated what's been staring me in the face for a while; the old guideposts to the music biz are history. Billboard and Neilsen SoundScan have been irrelevant for quite a while now; they're dead and jes' don't know it, yet. The Death Of Billboard (And SoundScan!) isn't up on the site yet, you gotta subscribe to The Lefsetz Letter to read it first, (and why wouldn't you?) but you can go here and click "Tell Me More" to learn about how Big Champagne aggregates info from dozens of sources to come up with a better kind of chart.
