Will the Stones not use and include points from downloads and streams also ?
Yes, but TEA Points (Tracks) and SEA Points (Streams) are young and not very much rock oriented formats, current artists benefit from this change in methodology, and for old acts is all about their greatest hits, just look at this week's US chart and all the greatest hits or old albums with popular songs included:
