Noah 25,868 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 It sold like 770k in pure sales, it has to be at like 1.1 or even 1.2M in the US. If all Worldwide Sales would be updated with the Streaming etc. it would be at 2.8M. ⟡ ⋆ ˚。⋆🦢⋆ ˚。⋆⟡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dramatica 13,264 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 It's platinum in so many countries, but not in the US. It needs to sell 1M to go platinum. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARTPOP#Certifications_and_sales  I didn't ask for a free ride, I only asked you to show me a real good time.

Whispering 18,865 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Because it's a waste of time to mess with this. It was a joke when My Everything was certified and it is the same when other artists do the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azor Ahai 18,861 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 It should be platinum if they apply the new streaming rules to it. But it seems they won't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzcutSeason 3,307 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I bought the Vinyl, Physical Copy, and iTunes Copy of ARTPOP. I contributed a fair share so 3 of the 770K are All MINE. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's definitely a difference I don't understand the logic behind the platinum number tho Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
