When calculating sales for the 'official' chart, can they determine which country the buyers are from? With physicals it's fairly easy to see how they are selling in different countries.

I often hear that a band has made it into the top 40 on only a few thousand digital sales, but are those few thousand limited to Britain, or is this a worldwide figure?
The UK Charts only include digital sales delivered to UK ISP addresses or UK Mobile Phone numbers. |
