anyone know what's happened to the top 200 download chart? — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 20:21, 8 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Yahoo never legally published the Top 200, OCC did not intially crack down on them, but did so eventually.Bleddynefans (talk) 09:38, 1 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Chart name edit

Is the title of this chart definitely the "UK Singles Downloads Chart"? Most of the reliable sources that I can find refer to it as the "UK Official Download Chart" (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4 [not sure how reliable this one is, actually], 5), whereas the only sources I can find that refer to it as the "UK Singles Downloads Chart" are the OCC themselves (a primary source), Wikipedia, and a few web forums. Per WP:COMMONNAME, perhaps that is the title where this article should be at.

That being said, I'm not entirely convinced that it's canonical that the UK Official Download Chart also ranks album downloads, so obviously we'd need a different article about that chart, and if we're going to call that one the UK Album Downloads Chart, then this one may as well be the UK Singles Downloads Chart. At the moment I've got no strong opinions either way, but I wanted to make sure that the discussion was at least broached on this talk page.

The OCC are not very consistent in their naming are they? The key is differentiation: UK is necessary. Official is not unless you're the OCC making a point. Singles is necessary. Either downloads or download is necessary. Pick one and redirect for the other - I don't see that it matters much as different sources use both and so do the OCC!

Anyone got a source for the most downloaded song of 2019 please I'm guessing it's "Dance Monkey". DanTheMusicMan2 (talk) 12:32, 3 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
