I know there are a few other download/ itunes threads on the go so sorry for posting another related one. However, I think this warrants its own thread.
Where the f*** is 'I'm with stupid' in the download chart? I aint seen it yet. On itunes the single version is a lowly #87!!! The Heavy Petting remix is still higher, but not much.
I know itunes isn't the only download site but it represents 70% of all DL sales.

If 'I'm with stupid' is going to fall down the chart with some grace it needs to be downloaded, as it won't hold its physical sales. Why is no one buying it on itunes? Is it to do with cocked way the formats are being sold? Surely its not just kids who go on there? Everyone uses mp3 these days? In theory, being downloadable should be a way of attracting the casual buyer who won't normally go & buy a physical cd single by PSB.

Can anyone offer an explanation? Is 'I'm with stupid' download life doomed? What can be done better next time?

The official UK download chart is published on a Wednesday, so that's why PSB are not currently there.

I don't know about itunes because I don't use it. There are plenty of other online download stores. 7digitals chart is here: http://www.7digital.com/chart.aspx?id=3. There are 8 PSB tracks in their top-20.

PSB fans want product not downloads.

Sorry to repeat myself. Surely the fact itunes reps 70% of the DL market, their sales are the most influential. It's ace that there are 6!!! PSB songs in that other top 10, 8 in the top 20, but how much baring does it have on the final sales chart? I mean, I aint seen that #1 'Monologue For My Thoughts' tearing up the hit parade!

Also, why is the standard single version of 'I'm with stupid' consistently the lowest placed track of all the downloads?
