what's fucked up about it? if people are interested, then who cares if they want to know. They're gonna buy what they want to buy anyway. What does it matter if they want to know what their favorite artists are doing numbers wise?

why if you were a fan would you even know what soundscan was?

more rappers than fans in the bay area. period.
If you work at record shops ever you know what soundscan is, I've been reading billboard charts since I was 14. Plus plenty of customers are curious and ask every week what the national best sellers are and we whip out the billboard magazine. Its no biggie man.

I've been interested in how much rappers sell for a while, I don't see what the problem is. It only becomes a problem if people choose which artists they like based on how much they sell (like many 50 Cent fans).

Put a list of all of the Sick Wid it releases!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, but true that I wonder how many people stole these artists music. That is what people should be worried about, people need to stop being theeves and cheap ass's.

(Right On Dutch)

If fans want to view artists soundscans then they should have to pay for the service just like people within the record industry. I believe that it is $25,000 to have a legal subscription to soundscan. I also believe that it is ILLEGAL to post up soundscan number to unsubscribers.

I think whoever is going to post soundscan numbers should have permission from the artist and label before posting the numbers. I am sure that Sick Wid It, Messy Marv, San Quinn, Thizz, YBB and others on that level wouldn't have a problem with it, but I am fairly sure Balance and Big Rich wouldn't of wanted there numbers posted up for a forum of mostly fans (music buying public) to see.
