Now we can squash that whole "labels can use tactics to pad sales" talk, as they certainly would've padded her total with a mere few thousand copies to break that record.
Nevertheless: goddess!!

LMAO!
This explains why Billboard didn't dare to do one of their clickbait articles for this if it was this close, even if she breaks it on soundscan.

:kii: if HDD's number holds.
Don't be too upset, since Taylor's opening numbers are growing with every album, she will easily break Britney's number the next time.
Ups, now I remembered ... Adele could set the new record before Taylor's next album.

Couldn't Billboard report something different and Taylor still break the record? :)

CHART DATE: 05/22/2000 LW TW artist / album label power index -- 1 BRITNEY SPEARS JIVE 1,325,311 OOPS, I DID IT AGAIN
CHART DATE: 11/03/2014
LW TW artist / album label sales index % change -- 1 TAYLOR SWIFT BIG MACHINE 1,316,427 -- 1989
She missed it on HITS by 8,884. I still think she will break it.

I laughed out loud when I saw the number. That is an insane difference. Taylor's HITS number is, what, 3k different than Britney's Soundscan final?
The suspense continues...

Yeah, the Soundscan numbers are the "final" ones, so to speak. She can still break it on Billboard.

how often do the numbers on soundscan trend higher than the ones hits reports?

Wait until we find out that the Microsoft "free" album cost her the record. This thread might get to 30 just yet! Unbelievable numbers by Taylor! Great job.

I think she has. No way would her label allow her to get that close just to miss it. Billboard will announce it. I'm a britney stan but still if her label allows the record to go like that then they aren't doing their jobs.

Nevertheless: goddess!! lol Labels pad sales all the time. The entire industry is corrupt. If you think every one of those sales were "legit" sales then their strategy worked. This goes for all artists, not just Taylor.

I wouldn't be surprised if this doesn't just add more drama for when she does break it. Again, her team better get her to break it.
