It's great going through old episodes where they show the most sold software of the week. We used to be able track the most sold software in the world based on retail outlet sales just like movie/book/album sales. It's much more difficult to gamify the charts with retail purchases. Today you just have to pay bulk $0.01 per freemium install in India or China to "growth hack" your "company" into a top 10 App Store listing for a week.
