Billboard's Album Chart

Billboard is now adding Catalog titles to its Top 200 albums. Before if an album older than 18 months dropped off the top 100 it got sent to the the catalog chart and never returned to the big one. But with Michael Jackson's death, and the repeated viewings by the public that he had the best selling album in the country, they changed their mind. It got confusing for people to hear that Jackson's Number Ones was indeed #1 but only on a minor chart. Now that will be rectified. And its a smart call. With newer albums not selling as much, catalog titles should compete with them.
