I couldn't give a crap less how much they sell.
Wow, maybe calm a little bit down?

Besides, we can all like what we want, but how is prefering sales over positions being negative? I'd rather have an artist I support be no. 7 with 23k sales in a strong week than no. 1 with 20k sales. O.o

How high something charts really only tells you how lucky/carefully planned a certain release is. Except when talking about certain groups like Mr. Children
and Arashi.
