Thank You for your personal reply. it's nice to know that comments are read by the OCC. My point is that althogh the two listed ' new single releases' are available to stream, they are NOT available to download. (In the case of Jacob Plant until next Friday 29th January and in the case of Macklemore no release date seems available yet) In my opinion you should therefore NOT list them as ' new single releases' UNTIL the actual week they are FULLY available to purchase. Streams are not enough on their own (in the case of these two releases) to chart them in the Top 100 so why list them until they are fully available? This further reinforces the need to abolish streaming and go back to a physical and download sales only chart which is a true reflection of what is actually being PURCHASED each week in the UK NOT streamed. I'm sorry but streams are NOT the same as SALES and never will be!

Once again OCC f**k up the listings for this weeks new singles releases. Jacob Plant (Feat. Example) - Reflections is NOT out until January 29th and i'm not even sure Macklemore & Ryan Lewis (Feat. Jamil Woods) - White Priviledge II is out yet as i cannot find it listed on iTunes. FFS OCC get it right or give the job to someone who can consistently get it right each week (ie ME) !
