Hot Digital Songs
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hot Digital Songs chart ranks the best-selling digital singles in the United States, according to Billboard magazine.
Beginning in February 2005, digital sales have been incorporated into many of Billboard's music single charts. It was decided to do so mainly because the digital market was more reliable than the unpopular commercial single-sales market. The current #1 on the chart is "The Sweet Escape (song)" by "Gwen Stefani" feat."Akon" [1]
