Hi.
where i found the peaks position on chart oricon international singles?

[croatia]

Hello to all, if somebody is looking for the 30 anniversary edition of Oricon Singles chart book (1967-1998) you can take a look at eBay Germany.
Don't know if I can give a direct link here but however, you will find it because it's the only one for sale at time. I am still a chart book collector but there is no need for some of my books anymore and I am selling them. This Oricon book's price is about 100 Euros and more normally. I am starting an auction with the half price and with a little luck you could get it for this price.

<<<SOLD>>>

Only Top 50 are available. There are Top 100 for singles and albums but only for physical copies. Separate charts (Top 50) for digital sales and streaming.

The combine charts counting all physical, digital and streaming would look different if we use similar methodology we have in other countries like USA or France, because the rules for singles chart are that 1 points (which in Japan means equivalent of sales) are equal 1 physical sales, 2.5 digital sales and 300 streams. In every other country 1 digital sales always equal 1 sales, but not in Japan. Also streams are converted into sales differently. Some countries have ratio 100:1, some have 150:1, others have 250:1. In Japan it's quite high 300:1.

So if we use similar methodologies some artist would be much higher in Japanese charts. Some examples:

Kenshi Yonezu and his hit single "Lemon" only in 2019 has been sold officially in 668.177 copies, from which physical copies are 202.136, digital 1.074.530 (converted into 429.812 copies) and streams about 10,9 mln (converted into slightly over 36,000 copies), but if we use ratio 1:1 for digital sales and 150:1 for streams Lemon sales would be 1.349.124! Kenshi other song "Uma To Shika" would be even higher: 1.579.736 copies instead 953.874 (483.265 physical, 776.265 digital not 310.506 and 320.206 for streams, not 160 K). And it's all without YouTube views, which would pump up the numbers. Just to mention that Lemon so far has been sold in almost 600,000 physical copies and over 3 mln digital ones, plus the song has over 500 mln views on YouTube! Official Hige Dandism - Pretender has been sold officially in almost 635 K copies (about 82 K physical, 196 K digital and 356 K for streams). The real digital sales for the song is 491 K and streams almost 107 mln. The song should have sales at the level almost 1,3 mln then.

The post is a little bit bitter one. I just want everybody to be aware that the methodologies for the charts around the world are very different. Sometimes they are so big that any comparison between them is pointless especially in term of the sales.

Is there anything on The Weeknd? I'm trying to see if his (Japanese exclusive) compilation album 'The Weeknd In Japan' charted.
