More No .1`s For AKB48


AKB48 continue their control of the female side of the industry by scoring five more number one rankings.

This time it`s for the Recochoku Charts. The weekly Recochoku track mobile and PC download sales in a number of categories and Heavy Rotation scored weekly number ones in five of six charts including ring tones and ring backs, full audio song and video formats.

No sales figures were given, however major names such as Koda Kumi and Utada Hikaru sell in the multi-millions along with a number of artists.

I am in no way saying that AKB48 download sales is in the millions ,that would mean that their download sales would be in the range of Koda and Utada and be 6-7 downloads per single CD sold .

Currently there is no uniformed digital sales ranking format that provides a running sales total count for digital sales.

Footnote
AKB has four songs in the top 100 in the different Recochoku categories
