Granted, I'm sure that's easily manipulated, but I think it's more based on popular opinion than record label priorities, or at least moreso than it used to be. Host is still awful, though.</P> @Chris Molanphy: FWIW, about 2 years ago VH1 changed their countdown show from a purposefully vague (i.e. rigged) charting system to basing it purely on website votes.

I know we all laugh at Janet, Mimi, and Madonna all gearing their material towards the MTV crowd, but this week’s chart proves that there is still a buying power in that market that cannot be denied.

Though I will admit that I am utterly terrified of the release of a music video in which M provocatively wraps her old bones around Timberlake in the hopes that his relevance will just ooze out of his pores and stick to her skin (at least for the next 6 months).
