I know you are a Britney fan right?
Do you know the total sales for the album CIRCUS so far? I know it is close to 1,270,000 right? |

Britney Spears' "Circus" (Jive) at No. 7 with 31,000 (-9%);
Which would bring its total to around 1,273,000 (I didn't do that math so don't hold me to it). |

ok cool! HDD is predicting 25k-30k again this week, so hopefully it will make it passed the 1.3 million mark next week!

DIGITAL DEBUTANTES
February 07, 2009
iTunes Sales Lift Three Acts To The Billboard 200
MITCHELL PETERS
The first three sales weeks of January yielded a striking trend on the Billboard 200: Each week, an emerging act's new album charted based solely on digital sales.
Thanks to favorable home-page exposure at the iTunes Music Store, free downloads, attractive pricing and a traditionally slow sales period, up-and-coming acts Erin McCarley, Company of Thieves and the Boxer Rebellion each debuted on the big chart.
Singer/songwriter McCarley released her debut album, "Love, Save the Empty" (Universal Republic), Dec. 30 exclusively at iTunes and bowed at No. 86 on the Jan. 17 Billboard 200. Wind-up Records rock act Company of Thieves released its first album, "Ordinary Riches," through iTunes Jan. 6 and debuted at No. 162 on the Jan. 24 tally. And unsigned British rock band the Boxer Rebellion released its new album "Union" exclusively at iTunes Jan. 13 and debuted at No. 82 on the Jan. 31 chart.
While none of the three albums remains on the Billboard 200 this week, their strong initial showings were a reminder of the market's continued transition to digital sales, as well as the formidable leverage that iTunes retains with consumers.
"It was just a matter of time before this type of thing happened for the first time and starts happening more often," McCarley's manager Michael McDonald says. "It speaks to shifts in the business, and it's certainly not the last we're going to see of it."
Along with their auspicious debuts, the three acts had another thing in common: Each of their albums was priced at $7.99 or less in its debut week and had a single that was available for free through iTunes. (McCarley and the Boxer Rebellion were featured as the Single of the Week with "Pony (It's OK)" and "Evacuate," respectively, while Company of Thieves' "Oscar Wilde" was listed as a Discovery Download.)
An Apple spokesman declined to comment on the sales.
Dorothy Hui, Wind-Up senior director of partnership marketing and digital strategy, says Company of Thieves' charting success wouldn't have been possible without iTunes' assistance.
"It was definitely driven by the visibility in the store and the fact that we were actually putting the [free download] into the hands of consumers," she says.
About 250,000 iTunes customers downloaded "Oscar Wilde" during a two-week promotion, according to Wind-up senior VP of sales Derek Graham. The timing of the release in January also "probably helped a little bit, especially this January, which is pretty dead," he says. "There was promotional room available then, which is good timing."
"Ordinary Riches," which gets a physical release Feb. 24, has sold 6,000 downloads, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
In the last week of December, approximately 600,000 iTunes users downloaded McCarley's free single, according to Pat Monaco, Universal Records executive VP of sales and field marketing. "Certainly, there is no physical campaign that you can do now that would have an impact like iTunes did in its first week," Monaco says, noting that McCarley's music was featured in several TV shows and that she had toured leading up to the release.
"People were somewhat familiar with her name and had heard her music in one of any number of locations," McDonald adds. "And iTunes helped connect the dots."
A physical version of "Love, Save the Empty" streeted Jan. 6 and has sold 3,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan; total sales are at 20,000.
NPD Group analyst Russ Crupnick says that many labels are seeking less expensive options for marketing developing artists. "Some of the labels I talk to are making an ever-increasing effort to do programs on iTunes," Crupnick says. "The younger audience is increasingly listening to music online and using all kinds of online vehicles for discovery."
Boxer Rebellion manager Sumit Bothra agrees, saying that offering free downloads and getting attractive placement on the iTunes store's home page almost instantly gives an act global awareness.
"Prior to iTunes there would've been no way of creating that profile without having to go to each individual territory and do promotion and marketing in those territories to raise awareness on this level," he says. But "it's the ability of the band and the team around that band to harness all of that potential." ••••

OVER THE COUNTER: LOVE IS ON THE CHARTS AS VALENTINE'S DAY NEARS
February 07, 2009
KEITH CAULFIELD
With Valentine's Day around the corner, it's not unusual to see romance-themed albums find their way onto the Billboard 200.
Mariah Carey's "Ballads" and Frank Sinatra's "Seduction: Sinatra Sings of Love" both enter this week at Nos. 10 and 23 with 29,000 and 17,000 copies, respectively.
For Carey, it's her 16th charting set and 14th top 10. Released through Columbia/Legacy, the new compilation strings together a collection of downtempo hits and album cuts. It's the fourth best-of set that Carey has charted, following "#1's" (No. 4 in 1998), "Greatest Hits" (No. 52 in 2001) and "The Remixes" (No. 26 in 2003).
As for Sinatra, "Seduction" follows last year's "Nothing but the Best," which debuted and peaked at a surprising No. 2.
Two years and one week ago this week, his "Romance: Songs From the Heart" debuted at No. 36 with 19,000. And then, in 2002, his "Greatest Love Songs" hit No. 32.
Clearly, Sinatra is often in the mood for love.
It's likely that both "Ballads" and "Romance" will continue to sell well in the next couple of weeks, at least until the Valentine's Day holiday has passed.
The chart that reflects the SoundScan sales week that ends Feb. 15 should hopefully look robust and romantic, thanks to Valentine's Day falling on a Saturday this year. Additionally, that week's chart will show whatever impact results from the previous Sunday's Grammy Awards (Feb. 8).
The same thing essentially happened last year, when the tracking week that ended Feb. 17 also reflected the full impact of the previous Sunday's Grammy Awards telecast.
The week ending Feb. 17 netted the year's largest sales frame for albums (9.8 million) outside of the always-busy Christmas shopping season. Also, that seven-day period posted the year's fourth-largest week for digital track sales, with 22 million.
The only weeks to surpass that digital total were the first and second frames of the year and the week ending March 30. The start of the year always provides strong digital song sales, as consumers fill up their just-received-for-Christmas MP3 players.
The March 30 week last year was an anomaly, when two blockbuster tracks debuted at Nos. 1 and 2 on Hot Digital Songs, throwing the chart out of whack. That week, Carey's "Touch My Body" (286,000) and Madonna's "4 Minutes" (217,000) started at the top of the chart. It was the first time two titles debuted with 200,000 or more in a week.
eight is great, BUT BRUCE AWAITS: Taylor Swift and her "Fearless" album will yield the No. 1 slot on the Billboard 200 next week after an eight-week run at the top, as Bruce Springsteen's "Working on a Dream" is on course to become his ninth No. 1 album.
The set led Nielsen SoundScan's Jan. 28 Building chart with unweighted sales of 66,000 copies through the close of business Jan. 27. With Springsteen and the E Street band scheduled to play the Super Bowl halftime show Feb. 1, it's tough to say exactly just how big the Boss' first-week sales tally might be.
Springsteen's last release, "Magic," started atop the Billboard 200 with 335,000 in 2007.
For you "Fearless" fans, Swift's continuing popularity may bring the album back to No. 1 after Springsteen has had a turn at the top. As it stands, the album's eight weeks at No. 1 is still quite an achievement. In the almost 53-year history of the Billboard 200, only eight female solo artists have claimed eight weeks or more at No. 1 with an album.
Alanis Morissette was the last to do so with "Jagged Little Pill" in 1995 and 1996, notching 12 weeks at the top. The other leading ladies and their albums are Whitney Houston's "The Bodyguard" soundtrack (20 weeks in 1992-93), Mariah Carey's "Music Box" (eight weeks in 1993-94) and her self-titled album (11 weeks in 1991), Paula Abdul's "Forever Your Girl" (10 weeks in 1989-90), Houston's "Whitney" (11 weeks in 1987), Carole King's "Tapestry" (15 weeks in 1971), Janis Joplin's "Pearl" (nine weeks in 1971) and Judy Garland's "Judy at Carnegie Hall" (13 weeks in 1961).

Thank you for the charts, 2m!
Wow - no catalog albums in the top 60 of Comprehensive for the first time since last February, but 41 total catalog albums on Comprehensive, which is a record for any week not in December or January.
Also, 25 albums appeared on Catalog for the first time during the first six weeks of 2009. The old record for a similar span was 21 albums in 1997 (and that was brought about by the 2-year rule change). In 1998, exactly one album (Carpenters 1969-73) appeared on Catalog for the first time during the first six weeks of the year. This must partly be due to the iTunes sales but also to the 78-week rule.
Regards, Miguelito

Hey, 2m- I just wanted to ask something.
Do you think the RIAA is considering changing their certification figures?
Like for singles- 750k is gold, and 1.5 mil is platinum.
And for albums, 250k is gold and 500k is platinum.
Do you think should do that? Becuase I feel like with the internet, things are only going to get worse. It's best they change the requirements. And we can have people like Daughtry getting diamond certifications with 5 mil sold.

albums certifications have always been at this level, even when albums sales were WAAAAAAAAAY lower than today and people rarely got a Gold record, so i don't see them chainging it
but for singles, the certs used to be bigger in the 80's, so maybe they could change it again to that level (G = 1M; P = 2M) but i would prefer they didn't do that, it's more fun to have a lot of multi-platinum records than just a bunch of G and P ones lol

The RIAA is not going to change their certification levels.
Album certifications are down because labels do not want to pay for the certification.

Nice to see that Natasha is over the 500k mark! I wish Angel would have taken off because the album deserved more  But at least it's gold!

Bruce Springsteen is on the way but, 4 weeks into 2009, no album has gone over 100,000.
Taylor Swift has been #1 on every chart and is naturally #1 for the year.
Taylor Swift's 4 week total - making her #1 for the year 2009 so far: 287,010
