Topic	Taylor Swift if probably the most popular music star in the world right
bigblu89 04/21/23 4:05:51 PM #5:	No_U_L7 posted... right now? she's the most popular music star in the history of the world ever I don't know if there's a way to quantify this, given how much the distribution of music has changed over the years. Best I've seen is to see what an artist's EAS is (Equivalent Album Sales) number is. EAS takes into account both audio and video streaming. Formula is basically: Studio album: sales of the original album (ratio 1/1) Other LPs: sales of compilations generated thanks to the album (ratio 1/1) Physical singles: sales of physical singles from the album (added to CSPC total with a ratio 3/10 for 2-tracks, 5/10 for EPs and Maxis) Digital singles: sales of digital singles from the album (ratio 1.5/10 for CSPC total) Streaming: equivalent album sales of all the album tracks (ratio 1/1500 for Audio stream and 1/6750 for Video stream) If you use that, Taylor Swift is the 30th best selling artist of all time. https://chartmasters.org/best-selling-artists-of-all-time/ This obviously does not take into account concert or merchandise sales. This is strictly based on music sales/streams. --- It takes zero effort to be a good person. <cite>bigblu89 posted [p:972990919] in Taylor Swi...
