Quantcast

RIAA Jay-Z

PLATINUM BY PHONE: The RIAA has altered its rules and will be counting the 1 million copies of Jay-Z’s forthcoming album purchased by Samsung toward platinum certification. “Going forward,” the org has declared on its site, “sales of albums in digital format will become eligible on the release date, while sales of albums in physical format will still become eligible for certification 30 days after the release date.” The RIAA has reportedly told some in the biz that only U.S. customers (including those living abroad) will have access to the album through the Magna Carta Holy Grail app, yet according to the online terms, the giveaway is available in "Australia, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, Germany, France, South Africa, Austria, Canada, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom" as well as the U.S. How many of those who download the album will be outside the U.S.?
