So let me get this right. The number 1 and 2 albums aren't original albums at all, just compilations done by various people. Number 3 hasn't sold enough to get higher than number 8 in the sales chart, so basically Mike Oldfield's been done out of a number one by mis-classification and streaming. What a crock.
