Nielsen SoundScan also said the industry set a new one-week record for digital downloads with "track" sales of 2.17 million. There have been 35.3 million tracks sold year-to-date, Nielsen SoundScan said.

i think it's time for billboard to factor the download sales into their charts a little more than they do now.. i think right now they only account for 25% of the chart but downloading has become the new way to get retail singles out there and the percentage should be raised to get a more accurate and interesting hot 100 chart
