 I found this and wonder why Vgchartz doesn't do something like this  https://igea.net/2018/12/igea-now-publishing-digital-full-game-downloads-charts/

Seems you answered the question of the thread yourself there

As for why VGC doesn't do something like that, they're just not big enough. They haven't got many sources for their sales, and IIRC they lost some recently which is why they're switching to tracking shipments instead of sales. They haven't got anybody to source digital data from and aren't big enough to change that.

IGEA is a team of 3 people, I  talked about this before, in the thread when the changes to software was brought up , and I was left with the opinion that what's holding any real progress is this area is to do with how ioi views Vgchartz  it makes him a profit but he isn't interested in spending money on it , my suggestion was approach Sony MS etc  at least that way you would get the lay of the land and don't lose anything.
