They started counting digital download sales for the singles sales chart earlier this year, and ever since there have been some who claim that record labels are secretly buying digital downloads of their own singles en masse in order to have them debut higher on the chart.

So . . it's banned from being counted for the charts because people might buy it (or I would guess multiple copies) for the art? That makes no sense.
