That's right. Downloads of songs now can get a group gold, platinum and multiplatinum status. In other stupid news, Billboard has a Top 10 list for cell phone ring tones. Amazing what we come up with.

The first obvious winner? Outkast's "Hey Ya!" is the only multiplatinum single so far, with more than 400,000 downloads. Six songs qualified for platinum, or sales of 200,000 singles, and 45 titles got gold status, for selling 100,000 songs.
