As for Taylor releasing a deluxe version of her album at the last-minute to get fans to panic buy and boost her numbers, is anyone really surprised? She's made it clear how obsessed she is with putting up the biggest numbers and being seen as the biggest artist. It's whatever at this point, really. Good for her. Yeah tbh I don't get why she's rush-releasing this Deluxe version at the last minute when she was gonna open huggeee naturally anyway... |

She is just out of control. Wild. SIX Swift albums in the top 20. Insane! |

👑 Eloquent ™ like she's clearly the biggest artist in the world right now so I don't understand. A better move for her would have been saving the deluxe for next week so it helps the album's second week numbers but after debuting with 1.5M units with Midnights, I guess I can understand why she'd want her follow-up release to debut as close to 1M as possible.

Yeah I suppose, but I still don't think she's getting close to a million even with the additional Deluxe version. I will say she can be very greedy with numbers! lol |

I think the panic buy can get her over 800k, maybe even close to 850k.

The deluxe version- which has the same tracks as the regular album, plus two live ones- is less than half the price of the digital? Lawd have mercy.

I imagine it's to squeak her past 700k. 800k would be wild though.

I can't even front, sometimes I wish my fave resorted to some of these types of tactics. He'd have like 20 #1 hits and 80 top 10 hits right now if he did.

Taylor said why sell 700k when you can sell 705k.

So do we think she got approx 60k sps on Thursday to hit the 700k mark? Luminate's numbers from the first six days had her at 640k.

So with the Digital Deluxe version, is it that digital albums will still count from artists' webstores but not digital singles?

Amazing numbers for her, and 4 albums in the top 10!!!
And with no other major releases this week, she has a good shot at staying on top for a second week.
