As long as it's good and has potential as first single, I'll make my peace with it not being written by DC.

In doing so they time the release of the sale of the single while there is already a radio audience and it drives up the Hot 100 number because its comprised of both sales and radio audience impressions. Releasing them all on the same day would have resulted in Archie premiering a lot lower than #2. We all know that even though Crush didn't go for adds until the 2nd it was already getting decent spin on the radio right after its premiere. I would see a similar strategy working for Cook: premiere the song, iTunes sales, radio adds. I understand the why wait to offer the single for sale when people are going to rip the song off the internet for free argument, but it seems like a great majority of people who took the free file did go on to purchase a single, so it seems like it made little difference in the long run. Anyhow, its interesting to keep track of and thanks MJ for providing the information! From what I understand the reason to delay iTunes release after a radio premiere is to build up radio audience.

He seems to know exactly what he's doing most of the time, and even when he reveals (as someone elsewhere said today), he conceals. I love it. Mr. Mysterious. I also love the name of the song.

There was no giant announcement in the media of the impending date, it just seemed to happen. In fact, I questioned it, because I was still working under the assumption that the radio release was August 11. Unless a huge piece of news escaped me for several days, there sure wasn't much lead time for Archie's iTunes release. Not that it mattered.

Then the dates switched. And there wasn't a lot of time between the iTunes announcement, and when it was actually released.
