As I do each month, I'll take them at their word. Yes, they are a business ~ in the business to present data as accurately as possible. No reason for me to not take Matt at his word (otherwise, for consistency, you will have to visit every NPD thread from here on out and question the results). If they've ever been wrong, I'd be happy to see how/when and will adjust my view accordingly. |
You can and must look out for any opinion or spin made even by NPD. But when they present data in clear way there is no room for questioning unless you want to question the whole validity of their methodology.
I haven't seem any caveat on Matt Twitt, at most it misses out the window of how many weeks or months he is considering.
