Magazin Billboard još jednom je promenio metodologiju nedeljnog rangiranja najprodavanijih albuma u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama. Novo proavilo odnosi se na cenu po kojoj se albumi prodaju. Tačnije, ukoliko se album u prve četiri nedelje prodaje za manje od 3.49$, te kopije neće biti uključene na zvanične liste i njihova prodaja se neće računati. Pravilo se takođe odnosi i na reizdanja.
Novo pravilo je najverovatnije uvedeno, pišu mediji širom sveta, zbog albuma Lady Gage, "Born This Way", koji je u Amazonovoj MP3 prodavnici prodavan za 0.99$ tokom prve nedelje, što su mnogi kritikovali.

Billboard magazine has once again changed its chart metodology for ranking weekly best-selling albums in the USA. A new rule applies for a selling price of an album. Precisely, unit sales for albums priced below $3.49 during their first four weeks of release will not be eligible for inclusion on the album charts and will not count towards sales data. The rule also applies to reissued titles.
The new rule has been most probably introduced, according to worldwide medias, because of Lady Gaga's album, "Born This Way", that was sold for 0.99$ in its first week in Amazon MP3 store which many criticized.
