The hormonal teens must sit all evening and weekends listening to the same songs over and over again. That's why Drake was No.1 for 15 weeks this year and Justin Bieber had several No.1's in a short space of time last year too. If you don't do loads of streams these days you've no chance of a high chart position.
LOL at your points about schoolkids. Most won't know either what an LP or vinyl single is.”

I am sorry but you don't know what you are talking about. Spotify offers unlimited streaming for £9.99 a month so you are not paying for just one song. Also Spotify offers a free version where songs are interrupted by adverts and you are limited on how many tracks you play in a month. The free version doesn't require any trickery like you are trying to suggest.
