This is very silly excuse.
If you analyze the chart. His album sales are prominent. He fully lacks in streams...

This is exactly how file sharing hurts the band... If you all waited a day and listened on YouTube and Spotify, their numbers would be much higher.

C'mon man. You know that it's not true. It doesn't even make sense. A lot of people asking for the link here showed that they have bought the album. And I'm 99% sure that everyone who listened to it with the link, listened to it on friday, on spotify (like me), mainly because the quality. It's not fair blame how much? 100 people? for the low sales (and you were one of those who asked for the link)

The big problem in my point of view was the lack of good promotion. Wrong decisions (as release DWYC and one week later release it again with Jen) and let's face it: BJ doesn't have a huge fan base anymore and it's no longer band that attract casual fans.

DO streaming numbers effect the album sales chart?

Do we know if Burning Bridges had ticket sales? they did a mini tour of 10 concerts.

Let's see how he will react to this. As Rolo said, BB without anyone knowing its existance a few days before the release, reached number 13. That's a shame, because I really think 2020 deserved more.
Without a doubt, 2020 Abum deserved more.

No, they would not be, I have given you a very clear example. It does not work like this.

I completely agree it's suuuuuuuuuuper low. I wonder if there's math we can use to figure out how the sales actually were for the past four albums and see how bad the decline was. The last bunch of albums first singles haven't really done jack so it'd be interesting to see.

I'm not sure if that album had that package deal but for only 10 concerts the difference it would have made feels negligible.
