www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/content_display/charts/chart_alert/e3if26e38ae1dcae0578bfa58916d105373Drake's 'Thank Me Later' Debuts At No. 1 On Billboard 200 With 447,000 June 23, 2010 Editor: Keith Caulfield; Contributors: Alex Vitoulis; Editorial Director: Silvio Pietroluongo Drake blasts in at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 as "Thank Me Later" bows with 447,000 copies sold in its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan. That's the third-best sales week of the year for a single album . . . However, we could very well see the biggest week of the year next week, when Eminem's "Recovery" makes a likely bow at No. 1 with more than 500,000. FLASH POINTS • Drake's "Thank Me Later" bows, as expected, with an eye-popping 447,000 copies at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, according to Nielsen SoundScan. It's the third-best sales week of the year for a single album. • The top two sales weeks of 2010 are owned by Sade's "Soldier of Love" (502,000 off its debut week in February) and Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" (481,000 in its first frame in January). • And since both Lady Antebellum and Sade are groups, the start for "Thank Me Later" is also the biggest debut week for a solo artist's album since Susan Boyle's "I Dreamed a Dream" entered at No. 1 with 701,000 upon its release last November. • However, it's looking like Drake won't stay in the penthouse for long and that his big sales frame will be quickly eclipsed. Eminem's "Recovery," released June 21, is headed for the top spot next week with a very large sales figure. Industry sources estimate the album could rack up the biggest sales week of the year, as the set should sell at least 500,000 copies by week's end on Sunday, June 27. • But let's get back to this week's charts. Drake also has the highest new entry on the Digital Songs chart, where his "Up All Night" enters at No. 22 with 57,000 downloads sold. Katy Perry's "California Gurls" retains the No. 1 slot with 337,000 (down 6%) while three songs in the top 10 make big gains. Mike Posner's "Cooler Than Me" rises three spots to No. 6 (142,000; up 42%), Drake's "Find Your Love" climbs eight rungs to No. 8 (112,000; up 46%), and 3Oh!3's "My First Kiss" jumps two spots to No. 9 (112,000; up 24%). • Back on the Billboard 200, the top four slots house new entries for the first time since last December. The second-highest debut belongs to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' "Mojo" starting at No. 2 with 125,000. It marks Petty's best debut sales week since SoundScan started tracking sales in 1991 and his highest-charting album since 1980. The record's handsome bow was aided by a successful concert ticket/album download offer, which accounted for a fair amount of the set's first week. • Next up, Sarah McLachlan's new studio set "Laws of Illusion" opens at No. 3 with 94,000. Her last proper studio album, "Afterglow," was released way back in 2003 and started at No. 2 with 361,000. In the interim, she has charted with two remix sets, a live effort, a rarities collection, a greatest-hits package and a holiday album. • The final top 10 debut comes in at No. 4 from the new "Now 34" compilation with 88,000. Not to be the bearer of bad news, but that sales figure marks the first album in the main "Now" series—not counting its various genre-specific offshoots—to debut with less than 100,000 since the first "Now" compilation started with 48,000 in 1998. • As for the rest of the top 10 this week, Jack Johnson's "To the Sea" falls one spot to No. 5 (68,000; down 24%), and the "Eclipse" soundtrack slips four rungs to No. 6 (55,000; down 63%). Justin Bieber's "My World 2.0" drops one slot to No. 7 (47,000; down 4%), Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" holds at No. 8 (40,000; up 4%), and Christina Aguilera's "Bionic" dips six positions to No. 9 (40,000; down 64%). Closing out the top 10 is last week's No. 1, "Glee: The Music—Journey to Regionals" (39,000; down 64%). • Overall album sales in this past chart week (ending June 20) totaled 6.2 million units, up 9% compared with the sum last week (5.6 million) and down 9% compared with the comparable sales week of 2009 (6.8 million). Year-to-date album sales stand at 142.4 million, down 11% compared with the same total at this point last year (159.7 million). • Digital track sales this past week totaled 21.4 million downloads, down 4% compared with last week (22.3 million) and down 1% compared with the comparable week of 2009 (21.6 million). Year-to-date track sales are at 554.4 million, up less than 1% compared with the same total at this point last year (552.3 million). MARKET WATCH • Album units, current chart week: 6.2 million units • UP 9% from last week's charts: 5.6 million units • DOWN 9% from the comparable week in 2009: 6.8 million units • This week: The top two albums each sell more than 100,000 copies. • This week last year on the Billboard 200: The Jonas Brothers' "Lines, Vines & Trying Times" bowed at No. 1 with 247,000 copies while the previous week's No. 1, the Black Eyed Peas' "The E.N.D.," moved to the runner-up spot with 148,000 (down 51%). One other album arrived in the top 10: Incubus' "Monuments and Melodies" at No. 5 with 70,000. A LOOK AHEAD • Among the albums released this week, due on next week's charts: Ozzy Osbourne's "Scream," Miley Cyrus' "Can't Be Tamed," the Roots' "How I Got Over," Herbie Hancock's "The Imagine Project," Sia's "We Are Born," Keith Sweat's "Ridin' Solo," Trip Lee's "Between Two Worlds," Cyndi Lauper's "Memphis Blues" and Macy Gray's "The Sellout." • Next week's album charts competes with the same week in 2009 when: in the wake of Michael Jackson's death, the King of Pop ruled with the top three best-selling albums in the United States as "Number Ones," "The Essential Michael Jackson" and "Thriller" ranked at Nos. 1-3 with 108,000, 102,000 and 101,000, respectively.

I don't like Billboard half-assed estimates for next week. Details, please!

No Carole/James in the SoundScan top 10.
Looks like Billboard had a typo in "Glee's" drop- it opened with 152,000 last week, right? That would make it a 74% drop.

Yep. Can't believe that half-assed estimate.

^It may not have received enough information to post a "tighter" estimate- HITS' estimates come Wednesday afternoon, too.
Year-to-date album sales are in the double-digits again, percentage-wise. Probably won't be able to get back to the single-digit range. And digital track sales, while very strong, are only up less than 1% year to date.

Well hopefully HDD will give a more accurate estimate for Eminem's album. The words "should do at least 500k" implies that they're giving it room for it to do well over that estimate, but I guess it could've been more difficult for them to judge since it's been out since Monday.

Here's Billboard's sales article - .
beg/ Drake Debuts At No. 1 On Billboard 200 June 23, 2010 - Digital and Mobile
by Keith Caulfield
Drake's "Thank Me Later" bows, as expected, with an eye-popping 447,000 copies at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart according to Nielsen SoundScan. It's the third-best sales week of the year for a single album.
The top two sales weeks of 2010 are owned by Sade's "Soldier of Love" (502,000 off its debut week in February) and Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" (481,000 in its first frame in January). And since both Lady Antebellum and Sade are technically groups, "Thank Me Later's" start is also the biggest debut week for a solo act's album since Susan Boyle's "I Dreamed a Dream" entered at No. 1 with 701,000 upon its release last November.
Drake also has the highest new entry on the Digital Songs chart, where his "Up All Night" enters at No. 22 with 57,000 downloads sold. Katy Perry's "California Gurls" retains the No. 1 slot with 337,000 (down 6%) while three songs in the top 10 make big gains. Mike Posner's "Cooler Than Me" rises three spots to No. 6 (142,000; up 42%), Drake's "Find Your Love" climbs eight rungs to No. 8 (112,000; up 46%) and 3Oh!3's "My First Kiss" jumps two spots to No. 9 (112,000; up 24%).
Back on the Billboard 200 albums list, the entire top four slots house new entries for the first time since last December. The second-highest debut belongs to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' "Mojo" starting at No. 2 with 125,000. It marks Petty's best debut sales week since SoundScan started tracking sales in 1991 and his highest charting album since 1980. "Mojo's" handsome bow was aided by a successful concert ticket/album download offer, which accounted for a fair amount of the set's first week.
Next up, Sarah McLachlan's new studio set "Laws of Illusion" opens at No. 3 with 94,000. The latter's last proper studio album, "Afterglow," was released way back in 2003 and started at No. 2 with 361,000. (In the interim, she's charted with two remix sets, a live effort, a rarities collection, a greatest hits package and a holiday album.)
The final top 10 debut comes in at No. 4 from the new "Now 34" compilation with 88,000. Not to be the bearer of bad news, but with 88,000 this marks the first album in the main "Now" series -- not counting its various genre-specific offshoots -- to debut with less than 100,000 since the first "Now" compilation started with 48,000 in 1998.
As for the rest of the top 10 this week, Jack Johnson's "To The Sea" falls one spot to No. 5 (68,000; down 24%) and the "Eclipse" soundtrack slips four rungs to No. 6 (55,000; down 63%). Justin Bieber's "My World 2.0" drops one slot to No. 7 (47,000; down 4%), Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" holds at No. 8 (40,000; up 4%) and Christina Aguilera's "Bionic" dips six positions to No. 9 (40,000; down 64%). Closing out the top 10 is last week's No. 1, "Glee: The Music, Journey to Regionals" (39,000; down 64%).
Overall album sales in this past chart week (ending June 20) totaled 6.14 million units, up 9% compared to the sum last week (5.61 million) and down 9% compared to the comparable sales week of 2009 (6.76 million). Year to date album sales stand at 142.4 million, down 11% compared to the same total at this point last year (159.7 million).
Digital track sales this past week totaled 21.4 million downloads, down 4% compared to last week (22.3 million) and down 1% compared to the comparable week of 2009 (21.6 million). Year to date track sales are at 554.4 million, up less than 1% compared to the same total at this point last year (552.3 million)./end
I looks as the Taylor/King album just missed the top 10, as the numbers for 8-10 are very close -
1 Drake's "Thank Me Later" 447,000 NEW 2 Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' "Mojo" 125,000 NEW 3 Sarah McLachlan "Laws of Illusion" 94,000 NEW 4 Various artists "Now 34" 88,000 NEW 5 Jack Johnson "To The Sea" 68,000 -24# 6 Various artists "Eclipse" Soundtrack 55,000 -63% 7 Justin Bieber "My World 2.0" 47,000 -4% 8 Lady Antebellum "Need You Now" 40,000 +4% 9 Christina Aguilera "Bionic" 40,000 -64%. 10 Various "Glee: The Music, Journey to Regionals" 39,000 -64%
ETA - Can the error in the chart date in the thread title be corrected?

Yeah, Taylor and King are probably just behind Glee at #11 with around 39k sold, I'm guessing.

new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/chart_watch/55472/week-ending-june-20-2010-lets-thank-him-now/Week Ending June 20, 2010: Let's Thank Him Now Posted Wed Jun 23, 2010 3:05pm PDT by Paul Grein in Chart Watch Drake's first full-length album, Thank Me Later, enters The Billboard 200 at #1, with first-week sales of 447,000. This constitutes one of the biggest openings ever for the debut album by a rap artist. It's bigger than Eminem's first week with The Slim Shady LP in February 1999 (283,000). It's even bigger than Kanye West's first week with The College Dropout in February 2004 (441,000). And today's sales climate is less favorable now than it was back then (to put it mildly). Only three debut albums by rap artists have had had bigger first weeks than Thank Me Later just achieved. 50 Cent's Get Rich Or Die Tryin' sold 872,000 copies in its first week in February 2003. Snoop Doggy Dogg's Doggystyle sold 803,000 copies in its first week in November 1993. Puff Daddy & the Family's No Way Out sold 561,000 copies its first week in July 1997. (Note: 50 Cent's album was preceded six weeks earlier by an album, Guess Who's Back?, on another label, but it was his official debut, as this is Drake's.) Drake has 13 songs on this week's Hot Digital Songs chart. That's more than Justin Bieber and the cast of Glee combined. (Those two pop powerhouses were good for four and seven charted songs, respectively, this week.) Eleven of Drake's 13 charted songs are from Thank Me Later. Thank Me Later rang up the third biggest one-week sales tally of 2010, trailing only Sade's Soldier Of Love (502,000) and Lady Antebellum's Need You Now (481,000). It's the biggest one-week total for a debut album since Susan Boyle's I Dreamed A Dream opened in November with sales of 701,000. It's the biggest one-week total for a rap album since Jay-Z's The Blueprint 3 bowed in September with sales of 476,000. But Drake shouldn't get too comfortable in the top spot. Eminem's Recovery is expected to debut at #1 next week with sales well above 500,000. Drake's album sold almost as many copies in its first week as his EP So Far Gone has sold since its release in September. So Far Gone has sold 485,000 copies. The music industry has been pushing EPs as a possible way of coping with declining album sales, but the fact that Drake's album sold nearly as many copies in one week as his EP has sold in nine months may give industry gurus pause. Fans seem to view EPs as a nice bonus for hot acts, but not as an album replacement. For that matter, the fact that 447,000 fans bought Thank Me Later in its first week suggests that the album format isn't as moribund as its detractors have been saying. The music industry is caught between its past and its future and doesn't seem to know how to get across the divide. Thank Me Later sold 103,000 digital copies. This is the third time in the past four weeks that an album has sold 100K digitally. Incidentally, Drake and Susan Boyle may well be in competition for Best New Artist when the Grammy nominations are announced later this year. If Drake were to win the award, he would be the first rap artist to win since Arrested Development in February 1993. "California Gurls" by Katy Perry featuring Snoop Dogg this week becomes only the second song in digital history to top the 300,000 mark in weekly paid downloads three times. It follows Flo Rida's "Right Round," which did it four times. "California Gurls" sold 337,000 copies this week, which brings its six-week total to 1,808,000. (After six weeks, "Right Round" had sold 2,251,000 copies.) Both of these songs borrow from old hits. "Right Round" incorporated elements of Dead or Alive's 1985 hit "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)." "California Gurls" borrows the title and fragments of lyric from the Beach Boys' 1965 classic "California Girls." Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers' Mojo enters The Billboard 200 at #2. It's the band's highest-charting album since Damn The Torpedoes spent seven weeks at #2 in 1980. The album sold 125,000 copies, which is Petty's best debut sales week since Nielsen/SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991. Why is the album doing so well? Billboard's Keith Caulfield reports that "a successful concert ticket/album download offer...accounted for a fair amount of the set's first week." That helps explain why the album sold 58,000 digital copies this week. Petty and his band have been charting for nearly 33 years. They first made the cover of Rolling Stone in 1980. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002. They have achieved just about everything a group can desire except a #1 album. Of course, most acts, given a choice, would rather have longevity than a #1 album. Just ask these groups from the late ‘70s and ‘80s, all of whom had chart-topping albums: The Knack, Men at Work, Quiet Riot, Tears for Fears, Mr. Mister, Fine Young Cannibals and Milli Vanilli. Mojo is the first album in nearly eight years for Petty and the Heartbreakers. It's the group's eighth top10 album. Petty has had six more top 10 albums away from the band (three solo, two with the Traveling Wilburys and one with Mudcrutch.) Sarah McLachlan's Laws Of Illusion bows at #3. It's her third studio album in a row to debut in the top five. 1997's Surfacing and 2003's Afterglow both bowed at #2. McLachlan also hit the top 10 with a live album (1999's Mirrorball) and a holiday album (2006's Wintersong). (And here we thought Mirror Ball and Winter Song were each two words. We clearly don't have rock star potential.) NOW 34 enters The Billboard 200 at #4 with first-week sales of 88,000. It's the first regular NOW installment to sell fewer than 100,000 copies in its first week since the very first NOW volume, which sold 48,000 copies in its first week in November 1998. Glee has stolen a lot of NOW's thunder. Song Scorecard: Lady Gaga this week becomes the first artist in digital history to have three songs top the 4 million mark. "Bad Romance" follows her first two hits, "Just Dance" (featuring Colby O'Donis) and "Poker Face." Two acts, the Black Eyed Peas and Flo Rida, have each had two songs top the 4 million mark. "Airplanes" by B.o.B featuring Hayley Williams tops the 2 million mark in paid downloads this week. The smash reached the 2 million mark in just 10 weeks, faster than any song since Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" hit the mark in its 10th week in the last tracking week of 2009. B.o.B's previous smash, "Nothin' On You" (featuring Bruno Mars), took 18 weeks to reach the 2 million mark. This is the biggest hit to date for Williams. "Misery Business," her top-selling song with Paramore, has sold 1,920,000 digital copies. "Airplanes," which holds at #2 on Hot Digital Songs, sold 213,000 copies this week. This is the seventh consecutive week that the song has topped 200K in digital sales. Here's the rest of the top five. "OMG" by Usher featuring will.i.am holds at #3 (196,000), "Billionaire" by Travie McCoy featuring Bruno Mars holds at #4 (178,000) and Eminem's "Not Afraid" holds at #5 (152,000). Friday marks one year since Michael Jackson's sudden death. Jackson has sold 9,023,000 albums since his death, which has bumped him up from #47 to #18 on Nielsen/SoundScan's list of the best-selling artists in its history (which dates to 1991). That's an amazing jump in one year. Tomorrow, I'll have a Chart Watch Extra in which I round up his posthumous chart accomplishments. Here's the low-down on this week's top 10 albums. 1. Drake, Thank Me Later, 447,000. This new entry is Drake's second top 10 album; his first #1. Eleven of the album's 14 tracks are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Find Your Love," which jumps from #16 to #8. 2. Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, Mojo, 125,000. This new entry is the group's eighth top 10 album. It's Petty's 14th. The album sold 58,000 digital copies. 3. Sarah McLachlan, Laws Of Illusion, 94,000. This new entry is McLachlan's fifth top 10 album. The album sold 25,000 digital copies. 4. Various Artists, NOW 34, 88,000. This new entry is the first regular NOW installment to sell fewer than 100,000 copies in its first week since the very first NOW volume in 1998. 5. Jack Johnson, To The Sea, 68,000. The former #1 album dips from #4 to #5 in its third week. "You And Your Heart" drops from #119 to #147 on Hot Digital Songs. The song has sold 259,000 digital copies in 11 weeks. 6. Various Artists, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, 55,000. The soundtrack drops from #2 to #6 in its second week. It's the week's top movie or TV soundtrack. Look for it to move back up The Billboard 200 after the movie opens on July 30. 7. Justin Bieber, My World 2.0, 47,000. The former #1 album dips from #6 to #7 in its 13th week. Three songs from the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Somebody To Love," which vaults from #54 to #28. 8. Lady Antebellum, Need You Now, 40,000. The former #1 album holds at #8 in its 21st week. It's #1 on the country chart for the 21st straight week. Two songs from the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs. "Need You Now" holds at #34. "American Honey" jumps from #80 to #76. 9. Christina Aguilera, Bionic, 40,000. The album drops from #3 to #9 in its second week. (It did worse in the U.K., where it plummeted from #1 to #29.) Three songs from the album are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by "Not Myself Tonight," which drops from #57 to #99. 10. Various Artists, Glee: The Music, Journey To Regionals, 39,000. The former #1 album drops from #1 to #10 its second week. All six tracks from the EP are listed on Hot Digital Songs, topped by the cast's version of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin,'" which drops from #31 to #82. Four albums drop out of the top 10 on The Billboard 200 this week. Plies' Goon Affiliated drops from #5 to #18, Glee: The Music, Volume 3: Showstoppers drops from #7 to #14, Dierks Bentley's Up On The Ridge drops from #9 to #20, and Lady Gaga's The Fame drops from #10 to #15. Live At The Troubadour by Carole King and James Taylor rebounds from #13 to #11 this week. The album has sold 267,000 copies in seven weeks. You probably won't be surprised to learn that 89% of those sales have been CDs. The album has sold a little less than 29,000 digital copies. The success of the album has brought catalog albums by both of these pop legends back on The Billboard 200. Taylor's Greatest Hits, from 1976, jumps from #106 to #96. King's Tapestry, from 1971, drops from #127 to #161. It's that classic album's first time back on The Billboard 200 since the chart opened up to catalog albums in December 2009.Tapestry has logged 304 weeks on the chart, longer than any other album by a female artist in history. Next in line: Enya's Shepherd Moons (238 weeks) and Bonnie Raitt's Nick Of Time (185 weeks). The Zac Brown Band's The Foundation tops the 2 million mark in sales this week. The album jumps from #14 to #12 in its 83rd week on The Billboard 200. It has been listed in the top 10 on Top Country Albums ever since it debuted in November 2008. The Gaslight Anthem's American Slang bows at #16, with first-week sales of 27,000. This is the first time the group has sold more than 5,000 copies of an album in any one week...Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers isn't the only band from the 1970s to enter the chart this week. Devo bows at #30 with Something For Everybody. The Steve Miller Band opens at #37 with Bingo! The Rolling Stones' Exile On Main St. moves up from #33 to #26 in its fifth week. It's #1 on Top Catalog Albums for the fifth straight week...Alas, the Tony Awards had very little impact on sales. The only cast albums on The Billboard 200 this week are for the perennial hits Wicked and Jersey Boys. None of this year's crop made the grade. Rihanna's 2007 smash "Don't Stop The Music" tops the 3 million mark in paid downloads this week. It's Rihanna's third song as a lead artist to hit 3 million, following "Disturbia" and "Umbrella" (featuring Jay-Z). Rihanna also topped the 3 million mark as a featured artist on T.I.'s "Live Your Life." She is the only artist with a grand total (combining lead and featured roles) of four 3-million sellers. Two songs top the 1 million mark in digital sales this week: "My Chick Bad" by Ludacris featuring Nicki Minaj and "Billionaire" by Travie McCoy featuring Bruno Mars. This is Ludacris' second million-seller of the year as a lead artist, following "How Low." He has also notched two million-sellers so far this year as a featured artist. This is Mars' second million-seller as a featured artist. Oasis lands its eighth #1 album in the U.K. with Time Flies 1994-2009. The band has yet to reach the top spot in the U.S. It's highest-charting album on The Billboard 200 is Be Here Now, which debuted and peaked at #2 in 1997. Time Flies enters The Billboard 200 at #131 this week. Toy Story 3 was #1 at the box-office over the weekend. All three movies in the series have made #1. The original was #1 at the box-office for four weekends in 1995 and wound up as that year's top-grossing hit. Toy Story 2 was #1 for three weekends in 1999 and wound up as that year's #3 hit. Toy Story 3 is the fifth consecutive movie to top the box-office that is either a sequel or a new version of an old movie. It follows A Nightmare On Elm Street, Iron Man 2, Shrek Forever After and The Karate Kid. Raw Numbers: Three weeks after total weekly album sales dropped below 5 million for the first time in Nielsen/SoundScan history, things are perking up a bit. This week, 6,138,000 albums were sold in the U.S. Heads Up: Eminem's Recovery won't be the only album to shake up next week's chart. Miley Cyrus, whose last full-length studio album, Breakout, debuted at #1, returns with Can't Be Tamed. It will probably debut at #3, behind Eminem and Drake. Also due: Ozzy Osbourne's Scream, the Roots' How I Got Over, Keith Sweat's Ridin' Solo, Jaron and The Long Road to Love's Getting Dressed In The Dark, Macy Gray's The Sellout, Sia's We Are Born, Cyndi Lauper's Memphis Blues, , Herbie Hancock's The Imagine Project and Trip Lee's Between Two Worlds. The Fine Print: Nielsen/SoundScan "re-processed" last week's charts on Friday, due to some late-arriving sales input. The biggest change was that Lady Gaga's The Fame and Jewel's Sweet And Wild switched places at #10 and #11 on The Billboard 200. Here's a link to a Chart Watch Extra in which I give all the details. Shameless Plug II: American Top 40 will mark its 40th anniversary over the July 4 weekend. Casey Kasem co-created the legendary countdown and hosted it for a total of 22 years. Next Monday, in Casey's honor, I'll count down the 40 longest-running #1 hits of the past 40 years. I'll also impart some AT40 lore. You won't want to miss this one. In the meantime, you know what to do: Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars.

i think the total sales or this week's sales of albums between #21 and #50 are incorrect
I checked buble's and nickelback's numbers and both seem to be mistaken

From Paul Grein's blog: "Live At The Troubadour by Carole King and James Taylor rebounds from #13 to #11 this week. The album has sold 267,000 copies in seven weeks. You probably won't be surprised to learn that 89% of those sales have been CDs. The album has sold a little less than 29,000 digital copies."
That makes sense, but he fails to note that if you buy the digital album, the DVD doesn't come with it, just the music. If you actually buy the physical CD, the DVD comes with it as well, so there's an added incentive to buy the CD.

i think the total sales or this week's sales of albums between #21 and #50 are incorrect I checked buble's and nickelback's numbers and both seem to be mistaken Excuse me? 37 WAR 28 38 33 * BUBLE*MICHAEL CRAZY LOVE 12,898 14 11,319 1,708,299 83 ROAD 32 40 34 * NICKELBACK DARK HORSE 12,643 14 11,090 2,813,744 What's the problem of these numbers for you?
