Do you think Taylor Swift's Fearless could reach 5 million copies total in the US before falling off the Billboard 200?
Current sales:
10 TAYLOR SWIFT FEARLESS 38,407 35,000 10 3,394,321

With YBWM blowing up on both country and pop, it's certainly a possibility.

Highly likely. I hope it does just because, how often do we have albums that successful these days? Never.

I am thinking she will end up around 4.5-4.7 and be certified for 5x platinum.

Yep. Her third single is just now starting to blow up and the album has already sold nearly 3.5 million copies. I don't think she'll have any problem reaching 5 million.

I think she'll get certified for 5X Platinum but will scan about 4.7M.

She's about to get her 2nd pop smash. So I say yes.

I think it'll fall off or move to catologue before it reaches it.

She is deservedly the biggest star in country presently and has emerged as a bonafide pop and international star, selling out arenas in minutes. In addition, she is selling over 60,000 copies of her album each week worldwide !

I havent bought any of her stuff and I've suddenly fell in love with Fearless so if I ever see it on sale I'll buy it.

I think the better question to ask is : Will Taylor end up with TWO 5 X platinum albums when both albums move to catalogue?
The release of Fearless actually renewed interest and spurred sales of her debut album.
If both albums can hang around until her third studio album is released(unlikely for her debut),I can foresee the same phenomenon happening in 2010. Fearless could well end up 6X platinum.

5x platinum is possible for both albums now in the long run. I cannot believe her debut is still selling so much.

She's releasing a deluxe edition this winter, so that will definitely help her out.

Has RIAA already certified Fearless 5x platinum? It says on her wikipedia page. I don't think her debut album will be crossing 5 million soon, but I do believe Fearless may reach 7 million possibly in the long run.
